            Bug ID: 381051
           Summary: Breeze/Breeze Dark icons for text/x-python and
                    application/x-python-bytecode shouldn't be identical
           Product: Breeze
           Version: 5.10.0
          Platform: Neon Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Icons
          Assignee: visual-design at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

For both the Breeze and Breeze Dark icon sets, the icons associated to both
text/x-python and application/x-python-bytecode are exactly the same. I believe
they are actually symlinked to each other.

When viewing a folder full of python files, this makes it quite difficult to
distinguish the code files (foo.py) that you actually want to open and edit
from the bytecode files (foo.pyc) that you rarely, if ever, want to open.

Consider the distinction that the Oxygen icon set provides between the two in
the following screenshot:

verses what it looks like in Breeze:

and in Breeze Dark:

Could Breeze/Breeze Dark split the two up, and provide some contrast between
the two filetypes? Perhaps darken and/or grey out the icon? Or switch to
another icon used for other compiled file types?
