REVISION SUMMARY
  Right now it's a duplicate (not even a symlink) of the `favorite` icon, which is
  semantically inaccurate. A more appropriate visual metaphor is "download", since that's
  what GHNS will do. So this patch symlinks the GHNS icon to `edit-download`. This makes
  it work for icons-only buttons as well, where the icon alone is sufficient to communicate
  what will happen.
  
  Thanks for @ndavis for suggesting this.
