<pre>
  address-book-new
  call-start
   The icon used for the action to create a new address book.

  handset with ear and mouth pieces facing upward.
  (Says the spec... I think we can be more flexible.)


  appointment-new
  call-stop
   The icon used for the action to create a new appointment
   The icon used for stopping a current call. Should be similar
   in a calendaring application.
  to the standard cellular call hangup icon, a red handset
  with ear and mouth pieces facing downward.
  (Says the spec... I think we can be more flexible.)
 
document-send
  The icon for the send action. Should be an arrow pointing up
  and away from a hard disk.
   (Says the spec... I think we can be more flexible.)

  (Editor's note: not used in KDE either, at the moment.)
 
insert-object
   The icon for the insert object action of an application.
 
mail-send-receive
  The icon for the send and receive action of an
  electronic mail application.
 
system-software-install
  The icon used for the desktop's software installer application.

  archive-extract
   The icon for the generic edit action.
   The icon used for the action that extracts files and directories
   (Rationale: There are a lot of things that need to be edited:
  from an archive.
    bookmarks, contacts, todos, away messages, fill/stroke colors,
 
    app specific item properties of any kind, ...
archive-insert
    There should be a generic edit icon as a common ground
   The icon used for the action that inserts files and directories

archive-remove
  The icon used for the action that removes files and directories
  from an archive.
 
document-export
  The icon used for the action that saves all or part of
  the current document, often in a format that cannot be
  opened again with this application.
 
document-import
  The icon used for the action that adds the contents of
  external files to the current document.
 
document-preview
  The icon used for previewing a document in read-only mode.
 
document-print-preview
  Should probably be document-preview-print, so that there's
  a possibility of having document-preview (which is a better
  fallback anyways than document-print).
 
help-contextual
  The icon for the contextual help / "What's this" icon
  in the Help menu.
 
insert-table
  The icon for the insert table action of an application.
 
mail-receive
  The icon for the receive action of an
  electronic mail application.
 
system-switch-user
  The icon used for the "Switch User" item in the
  desktop's panel application.


  tab-detach
  tab-detach
  The icon used for the "Detach Tab" action.
  tab-duplicate
  tab-duplicate
tab-new (or possibly new-tab, see below)
  The icon used for the "Duplicate Tab" action.
  tab-remove (or possibly close-tab, see below)
 
zoom-fit-height
  tab-move-left
zoom-fit-width
  The icon for the menu action "Window -> Move Tab Left"
  zoom-fit-best (instead of zoom-best-fit)
 
view-next (disregard for now, I think I've got a better solution)
  tab-move-right
view-previous (same as above)
  The icon for the menu action "Window -> Move Tab Right"
</pre>


And now for the radical stuff:
tab-new
  The icon used for the "New Tab" action.


<pre>
  tab-close
  new
   The icon used for the "Close Tab" action.
   The icon for the create action.
  (Rationale: Right now, the spec has quite a number of *-new
    icons, but is totally unflexible when it comes to adding
    other stuff that can be created. I propose edit-create as a
    basis and fallback for all "new" icons, regardless if they
    create documents, mails, podcasts, windows, menu entries in
    the start menu editor, classes and functions in integrated
    development environments, whatever. If this icon is there,
    every app and KDE core library can have "new" items while
    staying specification compliant.)
  (Consequences for existing icons in the spec:
    address-book-new -> new-address-book
    appointment-new  -> new-appointment
    contact-new      -> new-contact
    document-new    -> new-document
    folder-new      -> new-folder
    window-new      -> new-window)
</pre>


Of course, doing that breaks the current namespacing scheme
tab-close-other
of the spec's actions category, as for example document-new
  The icon used for the "Close Other Tabs" action.
is ripped apart from the other document icons. I think this
is ok for actions that are not solely specific to
documents/windows/dialogs, because it is important for
extensibility, hence the idea of fallbacks.


Consequently, there should be at least one more "generalization":
system-suspend
  The icon used for the "Suspend Computer" action.


<pre>
  zoom-fit-height
  close
   The icon used for the "Zoom to Height" item
   The icon for the close action.
   in the application's "View" menu.
   (Consequences for existing icons in the spec:
 
    dialog-close -> close-dialog
zoom-fit-width
    window-close -> close-window)
   The icon used for the "Zoom to Width" item
   (Opens up opportunities for:
  in the application's "View" menu.
    close-document
    close-tab
    close-project)

 *  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
 *** badly named in the spec imho, let's try to get this changed

To do for Oxygen

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

 call-start
   The icon used for initiating or accepting a call. Should be
   similar to the standard cellular call pickup icon, a green
   handset with ear and mouth pieces facing upward.
   (Says the spec... I think we can be more flexible.)

 call-stop
   The icon used for stopping a current call. Should be similar
   to the standard cellular call hangup icon, a red handset
   with ear and mouth pieces facing downward.
   (Says the spec... I think we can be more flexible.)

 document-send
   The icon for the send action. Should be an arrow pointing up
   and away from a hard disk.
   (Says the spec... I think we can be more flexible.)

 document-page-setup
   The icon for the page setup action of a document editor.

 edit-find-replace
   The icon for the find and replace action.

 help-faq
   The icon for the FAQ item in the Help menu.
   (Editor's note: not used in KDE either, at the moment.)

 insert-object
   The icon for the insert object action of an application.

 mail-send-receive
   The icon for the send and receive action of an
   electronic mail application.

 system-software-install
   The icon used for the desktop's software installer application.

Summary of the suggested changes and additions

The ones marked with * and should therefore go into the icon naming specification, presented here in a shorter list for a better overview. Including a suggested short description text like needed for inclusion in the spec. 

 archive-extract
   The icon used for the action that extracts files and directories
   from an archive.

 archive-insert
   The icon used for the action that inserts files and directories
   into an archive.

 archive-remove
   The icon used for the action that removes files and directories
   from an archive.

 document-export
   The icon used for the action that saves all or part of
   the current document, often in a format that cannot be
   opened again with this application.

 document-import
   The icon used for the action that adds the contents of
   external files to the current document.

 document-preview
   The icon used for previewing a document in read-only mode.

 document-print-preview
   Should probably be document-preview-print, so that there's
   a possibility of having document-preview (which is a better
   fallback anyways than document-print).

 help-contextual
   The icon for the contextual help / "What's this" icon
   in the Help menu.

 insert-table
   The icon for the insert table action of an application.

 mail-receive
   The icon for the receive action of an
   electronic mail application.

   The icon used for the "Switch User" item in the
   desktop's panel application.

 tab-detach
   The icon used for the "Detach Tab" action.

 tab-duplicate
   The icon used for the "Duplicate Tab" action.

 tab-move-left
   The icon for the menu action "Window -> Move Tab Left"

 tab-move-right
   The icon for the menu action "Window -> Move Tab Right"

 tab-new
   The icon used for the "New Tab" action.

 tab-close
   The icon used for the "Close Tab" action.

 tab-close-other
   The icon used for the "Close Other Tabs" action.

 system-suspend
   The icon used for the "Suspend Computer" action.

 zoom-fit-height
   The icon used for the "Zoom to Height" item
   in the application's "View" menu.
   
 zoom-fit-width
   The icon used for the "Zoom to Width" item
   in the application's "View" menu.
