Thanks for pointing us there.

My personal attitude is similar - we discussed it at one of the 
OpenOffice.org mailing lists last year.

But as this topic doesn't seem to be very urgent at the moment, I'd like 
to ask you, if you could wait another few weeks for a more detailed reply?

Most of us spend as much time as they can in the development of an 
initial set of desktop icons for LibreOffice, that might be included in 
the final version of LibO 3.3.0 (the third Release Candidate has just 
been announced).

I can't take the time to comment your proposal in an appropriate way, 
and others might feel similar.

If we don't start this topic soon after the release - would you send us 
a reminder?

Best regards

Bernhard
