I think that's a very good idea, since the Mac community are far more
"discerning" (although I could think of other terms for it). The icons
on your average Gnome \ KDE \ Windows desktop are not really consistent,
but because Apple made an effort to enforce guidelines from the
beginnign this isn't the case on the Mac.
