Some simple qs.:

* who would own the trademark/copyright of the icons? Who defend it?
* should converters (OOXML -> ODF) use them?

So, I like the idea of a default set that could include the identity  
of the application (I think of the Commonwealth flags w/ the Union  
Jack as an example, too), but then the logistics of doing this come  
to mind.
