I think the unification of UI is not so much a matter of comparing

them so all stock icons will be Tangoified. So it is about having a

I think here we hit the point where we need to hook in standard loading to get the icons, not create a whole new set that is a duplicate. Then we can get good icons, even when people use accessibility modes.

To restate, first we need to get effort into our icon loading code. That will pay off more.
