Acting on a hunch, I rebooted the machine.

Epiphany.png now appears in the browser drawer on my panel -- but under
Internet off the Main Menu there is still no icon; and when I right-click
the name and tell it to put the launcher on the panel, I get an error box
saying "Failed to load image web-browser.png" [sic! not epiphany.png --
the other is what I had last, iirc]

It goes on to say "Details: failed to open file
'/usr/share/icons/gnome/48x48/apps/web-browser.png': No such file or
directory." (I didn't hit the delete, nor issue a rm command, in any of my
hacking, iirc.)

The way it is now works for me, since I already have the icon on the
launcher where I want it; I hope those who know more may find something
here of interest.
