But hyperlinks are only underlined to differentiate them from regular text. We already know that icon views are full of icons, there is nothing they need to be distinguished from. When it comes right down to it, underlining is a very ugly effect which considerably increases the perceived "clutter" of the interface, but more importantly underlining ALL the icon text is completely pointless. It is meant to be used for emphasis or to distinguish different types of text, yet all the icon texts are of the same type (um, type: icon text...)!
