Hartmut,

the email you replied to was addressed to Jon, who is not a "passing  
by user".
and indeed http://www.openicon.org is not ready for "passing by users".

it would be great if ff and safari developers implemented the spec.
your comments to the bugs would help:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=269482
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12499

Safari bug comment #2 "We are lowering the priority because this is  
not heavily used."
kind of chicken and egg, if it's not used they won't implement it...

cheers
