No, if then remove "toolbar" completly.

Hmm, then we should get rid of loadIcon and rename loadApplicationIcon
to it.
Otherwise loadIcon would crash. So remove loadIcon, port all uses to the
new
way and then rename loadApplicationIcon....

There is a lot of code out there using loadIcon, which would then access
locate("toolbar", "filenew.png"). I would then favor to remove "toolbar"
and the function loadIcon

No - the current icons have pratical no history anyway as they were
renamed
to .png
