This is also noticeable when using very small icons.

The icon might have to be redone from scratch because of bug 909875 anyway.

Personally I can't see the point of showing that folder to the user at all. It's not like they're going to do anything with it anyway, it's purely technical and historically unused in Ubuntu. So maybe we should just hide the folder in the OS and forget the icon.

Either way, okay with me.
If the "Template folder" need to be removed because it's unused, I guess "Public folder" need to be removed too?
Does anyone use that folder? Sorry because I'm not using it. :p

Well, turns out people actually use it, although it's not a really common use case - more power-user inclined. So you'll probably have to add resolutions and/or redesign the icon as per bug 909875
