The Newsfeed extension currently uses a stock icon 
(stock/net/stock_hyperlink-toolbar.png, if I'm not mistaken) - wouldn't 
it make sense to request to add the orange feed icon as a stock icon and 
start using it after that?

Yup, maybe the newsfeed extension could have an additional menu item 
(toolbar button???) somewhere to make subscribing to a feed more 
obvious. Currently you have to click on the feed-icon in the 
statusbar.

Maybe GNOME needs a default RSS reader app we could depend on...
