He *has* criticisms:
"If the icon designs are sometimes too small to be easily seen..."
IMHO, they could fill the space between them much better. I don't know what's necessary for enlarging them.
Nothing.

They're the size they are supposed to be.
They are either stock icons in the proper sizes, or svg icons rendered to the proper size. What the "proper size" is depends on your current GTK+ theme settings.
So, if the user had set a theme that wanted larger icons, they should automatically get them.
Another cleanup will be changing to stock toolbars and items. That might manage the space a little better, and will change the toolbar buttons to respect the user settings for showing text or not. Also, if there are too many items, the missing ones will be available in a popup-menu at the end of the toolbar.
Fixing that needs to wait for the switch to GTK Actions, so might be just a little to get (I had all the conversion work mostly done except for the actual triggering of operations, but that last piece turned out to be missing so I backed it out for now)
