Jarring discrepancy between Virtualbox app icon and Breeze-themed icon

The Breeze theme icon for Virtualbox is ugly and nondescript. It's nothing more
than alternating black and gray lines with little green dots. It's impossible
to tell what it's supposed to represent, and its dark, blocky, rectangular
shape makes is look rather unattractive and muddy.

Furthermore, it's *very* far from the Application's own icon shown in the task
switcher. Usually themes app icons have at least some visual relation to the
original developer-provided icon, but in this case there appears to be no
relationship.

I've attached a screenshot that shows the discrepancy. As you can see, of all
the programs I have running, Virtualbox is the only one whose Task Manager icon
is radically different from its Task Switcher icon.
