Any chance of getting a URL that I could explore?

Then I don't understand the complaint. The icons that don't change
are our private icons that aren't taken from GTK. So how can they
"follow the theme", if they are absent there?

That would only help GTK users. I thought we wanted to improve the
Emacs appearance on more than just one toolkit, especially since that
