I downloaded the 2.12.1 and 2.13.6 tarballs from ftp (you can see from
the size differences alone that it's a huge removal, 2.12.1's .bz2 is
3MB, and 2.13.6 only 2MB!), installed in different prefixes, and did a
bit of find + diff magic, and the result seems to be that 187 icons
names that are in 2.12.1 are not in the 2.13.6 install either as regular
file or symlink (list attached).

While participants have asked about how to upgrade their apps, we should instead ask what happens when the user upgrades g-i-t, but does not simultaneously upgrade all his apps (apps which may not be maintained anymore, even!).

IMO yes.
