<li class="remarkup-list-item">System Settings uses sliders right there in its icon. :) They're already used to mean "Configure me!" in other contexts (KRunner, Plasma widgets, GTK apps)</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Sliders aren't the same as on/off toggle buttons. We use sliders in, for example, volume controls. I don't think there's any controversy with slider iconography on the desktop.</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">In case there is an issue with slider iconography on the desktop, or we want to move in the direction of using a gear icon for settings (which I would not object to), this patch would lay the groundwork and make that task trivially easy, as the only thing required would to be to replace the <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">configure</tt> icon with a new one. Without this patch, it would be a huge challenge to figure out all the symlinks and make sure not to regress anything; I already spent half a day doing that work to make this possible.</li>
