After doing the Crystal Clear Icon Pack, a couple people requested others... like Nuvola. So, my thought was, could we build the ability to support multiple icon packs into the Control Panel Interface? Not to ship more with it... but to make it easier for people to release packs that could be installed and the switched between from the interface itself. Basically, the way it exists now, we have:

controlpanel
\images
\\16x16
\\24x24
etc

and the interface switches between the sets from the interface. What if we could add:

controlpanel
\images
\\crystal-clear
\\\16x16
\\\24x24
etc
\\nuvola
\\\16x16
\\\24x24
etc

And have that switchable from the interface as well. It would mean detecting the subdirectories within the images directory and adding a bit to the code. But I think it could be a solid option. I'd be willing to try my hand at a Nuvola icon set if the feature were there. Maybe a grayscale version of the crystal one, too, for people that like that sort of thing. Thoughts?

There's been some discussion on the developer mailing list about standardizing the way drupal core handles icons. I've been waiting to see where that discussion goes before making any decisions about changes to the way the Control Panel module deals with it's icons. The develoepr list discussion has died down and I'm not sure anyone is actively pushing it for core at the moment.
