Yes I had seen them, but I don't like them (at least as seen out of 
context) and I don't think replacing a classical folder icon by another 
one (even prettier) solves the problem. Actually it might make it worth 
(In my initial quick look I didn't even realise they were intended as 
"folder" icon replacements). A common UI mistake is to put an icon 
without a label...

The UI provided by Martino is obvious (as it should), I just miss the 
common apps icons directly accessible.

Regards,
Fernando
