Have a look at Morphic-MAD.508 in the inbox which is a first attempt at a

It's not tied into any existing theme or preference frameworks, but does
allow you to select your preferred icon set, including no icons at all.

It's by no means the finished article, which will have to wait until the

feedback on the content or implementation, or pointers on how to integrate
this with a wider theming approach, please let me know.

are fond of the existing icons, so I'm happy to give people a choice.
