Bug Description
The use of a standard GTK file selection dialog to select a directory containing icons seems a little unintuitive to me.
When changing directories with the file chooser, I expect to be able to select the desired icon from the right-hand pane, but all icon files are grayed out. To actually select the icon, I need to click 'Open' and then select it from the Icon Selector window (from which I clicked browse to find another directory).
Also - and I appreciate this may be more of a distro problem - I imagine it would be difficult for a new user to know where to go to find the icon for the program they've just added (typically /usr/share/
