Can you elaborate a bit? Is this just a mockup to illustrate the concept 
of live/active icons, or is there working code behind this?

I do think the concept is good, especially if used sparingly. Safari 
does a good job of this in downloads on OS X, and Firefox is looking to 
do the same on Windows.
