Wine in Tango

If wine should integrate well with the surrounding Linux desktop, why don't you use the desktop icon set where possible? By using the Tango icons, wine applications will still stick out on almost all non-Gnome system (most notably KDE) as well as those Gnome desktops where the icon set was changed - that's not what I would call integration. I agree that the Tango icons are prettier than the one currently used, and as a result an improvement, but unfortunately they won't fix the "sticking out".

Kind regards,
Ralf Jung
