I didn't even see the button until Jens took my head and bumped it on
the button ;)

More like <kdevelop-source>/pics but if you find a standard KDE icon for
this thats fine too I guess..

Feel free, but also mind that the same icon is used on the file-selector
toolview to indicate the exact same thing. The classview sync looks
different though, maybe something with a document icon as base like
File->New and two arrows forming a circle...

I don't think cwd is a good think. I would've used "Sync To File" but
that is just too long for the dialog...
