Affects: ubuntu-artwork (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
A nice feature would be to have a set of miscellaneous icons.  Very
often you are looking for icons for scripts, games, launchers, and other
files that currently do not have an icon.  It would be nice to have a
set of icons in the human icon theme.  These icons could apply to many
different programs, but have no connection to a specific application.
Windows 98 had the right idea.  Here's some suggestions:

Sword and shield (game)
Music note (audio)
Computer (general computing)
Apple (anything)

There are many icons in the current icon theme that could be reused.  A
folder could be made of all the miscellaneous icons that could be used
for putting icons on launchers and binaries.  Perhaps the open icon
dialogue could have the misc folder on the sidebar along with pixmaps.
