Hi, Lars.
In theory it's related to our work, but in practice that is a lot of
design work (and different design skills, different resources, etc).
So we have no plan to revisit the icons given our resource
constraints.
We'd welcome contributions, obviously!
We are looking at ways to declutter, fade, or remove icons. (For
example, do view tabs always need icons?)

This might be slightly off-topic: I've never liked how Eclipse
minimizes (view) folders. Minimizing turns it into a vertical bar with
just icons. When I minimize, it always takes me a while to find out
where the folder went. I would prefer such a folder to minimize to
just the row of tabs (that is, the content panes disappear, the tabs
stay). Not as space-saving, but less confusing (for me, at least ;-)
