However I fear that the recognizability as being a text editor has been lost; nothing about the icon connotes that it's for a text editor, which is compounded by the fact that the name "Kate" doesn't suggest that either. "KWrite" does though.</p>
<p>This is not a huge deal as many other apps have the same thing going on. But it's something to consider.</p></div>

<p>Yes, that was done by intention.<br />
First we tried some variants involving "text" in any kind, but that is just like the old icons that look somehow some either a mime-type icon or a generic "something".<br />
If you look around, close to none of the currently relevant text editors have icons that have anything to do with "text" ;) (I look on you Atom, but same for Sublime and Co.)</p>

That breaks all 3rd-party icon themes (which I guess was the point, but is not so nice :) ).</p></blockquote>
<p>I am not that sure of that.<br />
Actually, I would like to have this as default for any icon theme now and not the other way around being waiting for any and all theme to try to catch-up.<br />
Actually, I was first very confused why my icon was never used before I remembered: ahhh, icon themes :P</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>TASK DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/T10243">https://phabricator.kde.org/T10243</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>cullmann<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>johanneszarl, Leon0402, IohannesPetros, alex-l, starbuck, cullmann, IlyaBizyaev, arrowd, abetts, stikonas, knauss, mglb, filipf, mludwig, aacid, lesliezhai, elvisangelaccio, kossebau, trickyricky26, ndavis, yurchor, KDE Games, Ark, KDE PIM, Discover Software Store, Yakuake, Kate, Okular, Gwenview, Konsole, KDE Applications, VDG, ngraham, manueljlin, Orage, cblack, konkinartem, ian, jguidon, hannahk, Ghost6, jraleigh, MrPepe, fbampaloukas, squeakypancakes, alexde, GB_2, crozbo, firef, alexeymin, skadinna, genaxxx, aaronhoneycutt, jriddell, mbohlender<br /></div>
