Can someone from the doc team comment?  If this change will force them
to redo screenshots, I'd prefer to avoid the change (they have enough
work already and it's fairly late in the cycle), but if the icons
don't appear in the documentation or that part of the documentation is
in need of other updates anyway, then I'd give 1 of the necessary
approvals.

Thanks,
