Hello Michel,

Here is a complement to avoid misinterpretation (my sentence was too
short/compact) :

I'm not against changes. I really expect them for LO !
But we must make every UI change with usability first in mind.

If we change icon set just to be able to say "we have new icons !",
we'll just disturb existing users.

There was some recent studies about icon. They can be used to provide
and evolution of current icon set. And why not, to show/hide the most
used one.

Let's do user-testing on prototypes to be sure that any change will
improve usability.

We obviously wouldn't change the default icons without testing them for usability, but that doesn't 
mean we can't have such new icons as an alternative icon set (until their proven to be solid.. or 
not).

Also you are underestimating the power of a fresh coat of paint, if done right a simple redesign 
alone could sell the program :)
