Full Version: Icon resource for default icons

Maybe this has been requested before, but I couldn't find it.

I would love to have the default icons removed from the skins and have them moved to a separate resource (just like the GUI sounds).
Skinners have do to less work to maintain a skin, they don't have to add the new default icons for each new Kodi release.
And users can choose their preferred default icon set.

Any thoughts on this?
-1 for removing it.
+1 for adding optional support.

While default icons are required, GUI sounds, weather and genre icons are not.

But what I would like to see is a way to define a single .png for more than one default icon. Maybe something similar to the icon override function of skinshortcuts.
-1 for removing them from me too. This would actually create more work for skinners, as each would likely need to create and maintain their own resource addon.

To me icons are an integral part of a skin and part of the skinner's vision for the skin. I don't care if this is added as an optional thing (even though I don't look forward to rejecting people's request for it) but -1000 to forced removal from skins.
