Specification compliance of icon names

Icon names without trailing stars already exist in the freedesktop.org icon naming specification. Also, the existing emblem icons need to be blown up to full icon size once emblems are done with automatic resizing and placement.

 * suggesting this for inclusion into the icon naming specification
 ** not in the spec, but let's keep it out of there anyways,
    it's not really suited to be a standard icon

To do for Oxygen

Icons that are in the spec, but not yet in Oxygen's emblems/ (after renaming) so they need to be added. Descriptions taken from the specification.

 emblem-default
   The icon used as an emblem to specify the default selection
   of a printer for example.

 emblem-documents
   The icon used as an emblem for the directory where a user's
   documents are stored.

 emblem-downloads
   The icon used as an emblem for the directory where a user's
   downloads from the internet are stored.

 emblem-important
   The icon used as an emblem for files and directories that are
   marked as important by the user.
   (Editor's note: Let's extract this from places/folder-important.)

 emblem-mail
   The icon used as an emblem to specify the directory where the
   user's electronic mail is stored.

   The icon used as an emblem for files and directories which can
   not be written to by the user.

   The icon used as an emblem for files and directories that are
   shared to other users.

To do for Oxygen *and* the spec

Icons that are neither in the spec nor in Oxygen's emblems/ (after renaming) but still should be added to both.

   audio content, such as music collection folders or audio CDs.

   video content, such as video collection folders or video DVDs.
   (Editor's note: Let's extract this from places/folder-video.)

Including a suggested short description text like needed for inclusion in the spec.

Open questions

  • Can additional (unspecified) emblems be added to the emblems/ directory? What happens if any given theme doesn't provide a requested emblem?
