Package: gnome-themes
Version: 2.14.3-1

Please, could some other themes take place in Debian, or (better) the 
said icons be replaced in current themes? The "home" and "history" icons 
in Epiphany-browser are taken from actual GNOME theme. These two icons 
are the same in almost all GNOME themes, that are otherwise quite nice. 
Just these two icons look just ugly in broader context of the desktop 
theme and/or Epiphany. They are sortof "old", "smudge", as if they were 
meant to die 10 years ago.

This "cosmetic" issue forces me to avoid epiphany browser on desktops of 
my users. I won't give them such an ugly browser, that would otherwise 
do anything they might need. Compare it to either browser on market. 
Almost every other browser looks much more fresh, healthy, nice. Just 
the Epiphany looks like a fosile.

Yes, there ARE themes that change these two icons too. They are however 
too glassy or painty. I need solid, nice, simple theme. The default one 
is good. Excepting the home and history icons.
