That's true, and I regularly work with the Tango Icons. The question is,
whether Tango will be "the choice" for us, since it still lacks a lot of
specialized icons (Galaxy works better here). And, if we are sure that
it works well on all platforms ... if yes, then we might go for that
style atm.

And, it can be guessed some the Tango icons (a fraction) will change
soon, since they are currently re-done with a new styling.

I can join the campaign "I miss a Mac" - so if anybody here (but you
Thorsten, you have to care about other things *g*) has a Mac, it would
be great to see a screenshot - just for fun.
