Comment 8 for bug 331383

Neither way, I think introducing the notification-* prefix in the icon packs is good, but it makes other things look inconsistent. Maybe someone should be thinking about cleaning up the names.

Example: you now use notification-*. There are still a lot of files with nm-* (network manager). Either way then it should be ntf-* (or something like that for notification) or what would be better is using networkmanager-* which makes icon sets more clear.

On the other hand there should always be a fall-back for those notifications. It should not depends on a theme i think... Maybe there should be at least a textual fall-back.

At last, the icons should indeed be included in the Gnome theme as Mark Shuttleworth stated above. I heard rumors about adding them to the high-color theme because every theme inherits from that theme. That should NOT be done. It is called for a reason high-color and the icons currently used for notify-osd are NOT high-color icons.
