I will think, but with my bad english it could be even worst :D

Not surprised with that, LibO has a huge number of icons, Gnome can't 
have one for each of us.

I'm really not sure of what I will say, but as SVG are XML files, 
couldn't the color be automaticaly changed by the theme / program ? It 
seems me it's the way Ubuntu do with its indicators (I repeat, I'm 
really not sure, more a question than anything else)
