[Tango-artists] Icon Naming Spec list for Tango progress tracking (almost done)

I've got this Mediawiki extension to display the icon naming list almost 
ready. I ran into a few issues that hopefully we can clear up:

1. There's a small XML error that prevents the icon-naming-spec.xml file 
(from default-icon-theme on freedesktop.org CVS) from being valid XML. 
See the attached validation-fix.patch

2. There's now way to garner the category directory names (apps, 
actions, emotes, etc.) from the docbook XML that the icon naming spec 
lives it - it only has human-readably titles (eg. "Standard Action 
Icons", etc.). I've attached a patch that ads IDs to the docbook tables. 
Should be harmless in the docbook, and makes the XML much easier to work 
with.

3. The web-server that Tango-Project.org lives on right has a funky way 
of dealing with broken URL requests. The page I've set-up tries to call 
the .png file on tango-project.org for each entry in the icon naming 
spec. Obviously, some don't exist yet. Rather than sending a quick 
404/redirect, the webserver is sending a 301, so the browser downloads a 
whole HTML page for each broken image. It takes FOREVER. Garrett, can 
you take a look at this?

The first version of the Mediawiki extension is attached here as well 
(default-icon-theme.php). Mike Gauthier, a fellow silverorange, deserves 
most of the credit for it (thanks Mike!).

I have a copy of this running at 
http://wiki.silverorange.com/TangoPreview but it is REALLY slow because 
of the way the Tango-Project server is returning 301 instead of 404 pages.

Now, it's time for bed. Apologies for any typos - I'm tired.
