[Bug 46801] Re: Bad close icon

[Paolo Borelli]

As I explained above (and in the upstream bug I pointed out) it's not a
"simply fix the cropping issue" bug. Fixing the crop with clearlooks
(and ubuntulooks) breaks other themes or makes the tabs just to big to
be bearable. The other solution is to use a custom close icon icon
instead of STOCK_CLOSE, but this is not a viable solution at the moment
(too much code change) and would make gedit/epiphany/gnome-terminal/gaim
etc inconsistent unless all agree on it.

Last but  not least as I said above, even if the specific cropping issue
is fixed, a big orange square is not well suited to have on each tab.
