Dash - Update Dash nav bar icons

[John Lea]

Update the Dash nav bar icons with the icons in the attached file "desktop-lenses-icons.zip". If any changes or modifications are required please contact Matthieu James

The Twitter logo as a Gwibber icon in the lens bar was reverted in Bug #1056191. Is it re-added on purpose?

[Matthieu James (tiheum)]

In agreement with John, I updated the Gwibber lens icon to a messaging bubble. See the file attached.

Being musical, I take minor issue with the music lens icon; the double beam (when it occurs) in music notation is usually two beams of the same width, the second one being thinner just looks odd to me.

I propose removing the second line altogether, since two fat beams look even more odd at this scale.

Otherwise: Great: :)

[Seán Ó Séaghdha (seanos)]

Why does this icon pack use a letter as an icon? That goes against the principles of internationalisation. The letter A conveys nothing useful to speakers of many languages and has often been used as an icon for things related to Fonts, not Software or Applications.

This is a really bad choice for an OS which used to pride itself on being international. It just makes Ubuntu look amateurish at best or Anglo-centric at worst.
