I noticed something while looking through M-r FP2 review (only in russian for now). FP2 is removing the icons that go besides the name of the app in the title bar. For example this:

There’s no arrows icon besides the Log name.
This looks like a bad decision in my opinion, since apps that do have that will look unconsistent with the rest of the phone, like Quickoffice

They also seem to be using the icon space for smaller descriptive icons of the current action, like in messages, discerning Text from audio messages


And in IM to show the status.

In my opinion this change is for worse, and there is no technical excuse, since icons are vector graphics.
My only hope is that they took out the icons to remake simple forms of them, like the messages one, but I’m not counting on it.
Edit: Just noticed FP1 already has the IM status indicator little icon!

That doesn’t mean much, but as I never noticed it, I can post about it :P
