[Tango-artists] Selecting primary/secondary icon themes in GNOME

[Simon Pascal Klein]

Sorry this is somewhat GNOME-specific—not sure where to best address  
this:

Primary and secondary icon themes can be selected in the GNOME theme  
manager by selecting an icon set, and then clicking on another—the  
theme that was first selected becomes the secondary set, and of course  
the theme that was just and last selected is the primary theme. This  
becomes handy if I wanted to set an “icon theme” that only has folders  
to “overwrite” a more complete set and its folders.

The only problem is that this isn’t evident to users. I mentioned this  
at GUADEC to Andreas (iirc). Many other GNOME users I’ve chatted with  
weren’t aware of primary/secondary theme selections either, or agreed  
that the feature is very hidden. What do you guys think?
