Clearly my opinion about TDE is no more important than yours, possibly less so, and you have the support of Tim, whose opinion clearly matters a lot more than mine. But the majority of those who have posted on this list think as I do that change for change's sake is not a good idea. As I said, if it ain't broke don't fix it. :-)

Actually I am in favor of keeping Crystal SVG as the TDE default for a number of reasons, but on the same token it would not hurt to explore functional alternatives to the ubiquitous Oxygen/Gnome icon sets for those users who want a newer look.
I'm not sure where you picked up that Alexandre's suggestions to replace Crystal SVG had my support. ;-)
