Well, the issue is if you keep the standard "Automatic" icon set, and you simply change the GNOME theme to IndustrialTango or Silicon (maybe others too), you get really strange icons in OO.o ("Crystal" ones). This is likely to make you go back to Human GNOME theme: this bug is like removing two of the best themes we have. And this is not a geek customization. And it is quite simple to resolve compared to others. (I'm not talking for myself, since it's solved on my box by installing the package, but for the quality of the distribution).
