[Tango-artists] Suggestion for names for extra drive and media icons

[Pierre Ossman]

When discussing the need for an icon for flash media (bug 5647), it was
suggested to assemble a list of media icons that would fall outside the
core set. This is the beginning of such a list.

Since a part of the tango project is to bring order to the chaos that is
icon names, I'm feeling a bit uneasy about a set of icons that are
specific to tango (i.e. the tango-extras). Instead, I have another
suggestion.

As an addition to the standard icon naming specification, we have a
second list of icon names. The names in this list are optional, in the
sense that applications can not rely on them being present on any
system. To have a consistent behaviour, the list also specifies a
fallback icon from the base icon set. This fallback is used when the
desired icon can not be found. Not sure how this should interact with
theme inheritence though.

Anyhoo, here's the first couple of entries for such a list. The
media-flash icon might be difficult to find a good metaphor for.
Provided the other media-flash-icons exist it might even be superfluous.
