    Specification compliance of icon names

    With MIME types, there is no complete list of icon names in the spec. Therefore, they are divided in categories:

    Standard FD.o MIME Types

    This is the complete list in the FD.o spec:

     application-x-executable        OK
     audio-x-generic                 OK
     font-x-generic                  (valid? font-* is not in IANA.)
     image-x-generic                 OK
     package-x-generic               OK (valid? package-* is not in IANA.)
     text-html                       OK
     text-x-generic                  OK
     text-x-generic-template         Needed
     text-x-script                   OK
     video-x-generic                 OK
     x-office-address-book           OK
     x-office-calendar               Needed
     x-office-document               OK
     x-office-presentation           Needed
     x-office-spreadsheet            OK
    

    These are included in Tango:

     application-certificate
     x-office-document-template
     x-office-drawing
     x-office-drawing-template
     x-office-presentation-template
     x-office-spreadsheet-template
    

    It has not yet been determined which Tango icons we will need to use.

    Icons for Standard MIME Types

    This is the complete list in the FD.o spec Non-regular files:

     inode-blockdevice               Needed
     inode-chardevice                Needed
     inode-directory                 OK
     inode-fifo                      Needed
     inode-mount-point               Not needed, because it's not
                                     displayed as its own icon
     inode-socket                    Not needed (right?)
     inode-symlink                   Not needed, because it's not
                                     displayed as its own icon
    

    Other MIME types conforming to IANA

     application-xhtml+xml           OK
     text-vcalendar                  OK
     text-plain                      OK
    

    Note for IANA conformity, see: [1]

    Other MIME types needed for KDE

     application-x-bittorrent        OK
     application-x-mswinurl          OK
     x-office-contact                OK (should be used as "contact" icon,
                                         that is, someone != actual user)
     x-media-podcast                 -> move to Amarok, or OK
