what makes tons more sense to me than placing icons on folders (aka "emblems") 
is allowing folders (and files, for that matter) to be tagged and then using 
those tags to figure out what icons to superimpose on the mimetype icons.

there was a summer of code project to do this, but the code never really 
reached maturity. it really wouldn't be all that hard to create a tag:// 
ioslave that did this, actually.
