As I already stated elsewhere, I think folder-foo is better here, absent
the usage of emblems on the normal folder icon, which would be more
appropriate.
Though, I think there are some oddities in the naming of the folders
themselves, which we might want to avoid duplicating in the icon names
for

Hi,
The Recent Files spec isn't XBEL. I don't know how implementable this
is, but I think it would be better to store configuration in config
somewhere. Perhaps this could be implemented via dconf (when it is
available) or with an XSetting, so that it will work for both desktops.

The biggest issues I see, are icon themes, cursor themes, and sound
themes. These are currently installed in separate paths from other

The Icon Naming Specification itself only provides the minimal list of
names. I've changed the text you referenced, to clarify this, in CVS.
There will be addendums to provide lists of names for extra icons, such
as devices[1] and MIME types.
The names in the spec itself are intended to be the bas

a lot of multimedia software already has methods for setting album art

The details are in the spec. The problem with file type icons is people
assign arbitrary things as the MIME type. Like application/foo for
audio files, or text types. It seems like most new things just end up

While having a list of icons that are not in the base specification is
great, I don't think we should list icons as a per-desktop thing. The
goal of icon themes, and the naming spec in particular, is that we can
use the same icons on all desktops.
I would much prefer the addendum specifications to

I have to agree with Matthias here. Icons should a) be in the theme, and
b) be in US-ASCII. The prior part is specified in the Icon Theme Spec,
and the latter in the Icon Naming Spec. An application's icon should be
named the same as the binary which is run to use the application.
The behavior is
