Icons and the FOSS desktop

,----[ Quote ]
| In fact, modern applications, proprietary and 
| FOSS alike, seem to me explicit admissions 
| that icons do not work very well. Many 
| applications provide mouseover help to help 
| users identify the icons. The KDE desktop 
| goes one step further, offering thumbnails to 
| help you see what each icon does or contains. 
| If icons worked the way they are supposed to, 
| then why would these supporting structures 
| even exist?
