--- Comment #6 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at user-prompt.com> ---
Oups, I posted my comment at completely wrong position. Once again, with a
tendency to answer your last question with use the "hand icon".

You are talking about Okular menu extra > navigation, right? Actually, the 
content cursor is a hand pointer and changes to hand press (I don't know the 
correct name). So it doesn't match with the menu icon.
IMHO, the primary task of "browse" (in my German menu "navigation") is moving 
the sheet around with the goodie of left and right click (with changing cursor 
in that case). Therefore I agree with mokush, at least since all mouse actions 
could assigned to the rather unspecific input icon. And a benefit of changing 
the icon to actions/transform-move would be a better distinction of all 5 
icons.
BTW: It's quite unusual to place 5 options in the menu but separate them in 
the toolbar. Perhaps it makes sense to adopt the toolbar structure to the 
menu. I say "perhaps" because the five options belong to different tasks and
the 
intended use is not easy to understand. Wouldn't it be better to separate view 
and selection?
PS: German translation is buggy: the function is called "Navigation" in menu 
and "Durchsuchen" in toolbar. That points to a complicated original name.
