Hey Martin!I'm not sure I agree that the oxygen-style and tango-style clash that hard and we're slowly trying to move closer to the oxygen-style. The latest Firefox 3 stuff is a small step in that direction (+ our HighRes experiments [1], [2]).
And yeah, I would be rather happy if Livio's flames calmed down a bit too and really hope it haven't put the tango-project in a bad light. :/
It's also mega-important for HighContrast where the interface will be quite useless if hardcoded.Some apps are using hardcoded pixmaps, but better are tangoish, than old-GNOME-1.x.Hard-coded pixmaps are bad, if you keep fillings bugs about those, the situation might improve for all the people trying to make their own icon themes (and guessing from look at gnome-look.org there are a lot of them).
