> I want to ask tray developers! Why do I need to ask icons people?!
I am a tray developer. The answer to your question is because it's the reason
why icon theming exists: so that people can express preferences like this
*systemwide*.

The reason why Kickoff category icons are configurable is because this
mechanism is very old, and predates icon theming IIRC. It's not feasible to
allow every single icon everywhere in the system to be customized individually
in the same manner as it would conflict with the systemwide icon theming and
make customization complicated because there would be two sources of truth:
what came from the icon theme, and the custom icon name chosen by the user. It
could get very confusing.

You can rename the bug report all you want, but I've given you the answer,
sorry. I know it's frustrating to be told "no", but sometimes that's how life
is.
