- FLAVOR: Desktop

- HEADLINE: New icons by default!

- DESCRIPTION: There are a lot of good icon sets out there that are easy to install. I think a better default icon set would make the desktop look a lot smoother and cleaner.

There's a lot of unnecessary color, gloss and general distraction in Unity: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7b/Ubuntu_1.... It's all very 2005-fake-version-of-old-OS-X.

What purpose does the rectangular second layer of gloss on the icons serve?
