And maybe that would be no bad thing?
Look, for instance, at the icon bar at the top of the editor page we use to write these messages. The icons are compact, functional and don't look 'designed'. (Far too much space is wasted on a gallery of smilies, but that's another matter.)
Remember the reading pane in Calibre, until the (welcome) recent re-design? That was another example of icons being thoroughly intrusive.
