Without any prior knowledge of what that button does, I really would
have no idea what it does, with the pencil icon, or any other suggested
icons. And I certainly don't think putting text in the icon would be a
fitting metaphor either. At that point, we might as well just change it
to say "Edit" and not have an icon.
