The Dashboard layout will also be tweaked further, and until it settles down it's not clear what can be safely made configurable. Beyond that this patch would have some implementation issues, e.g. we don't want to expose icon sizes in numeric form to the user. I appreciate the idea and the attempt, but I'm going to reject this patch for now.

Even if The implementation issue could be fixed and enhanced (it's one of the purpose of review, i think :) ),  I understand it's not time to do it.  I apprecate  you for your clear comment. I'd like to discard this  requiest:)
