That would preclude us from assigning an issue to a particular person 
once someone has shown some interest for it. That does not work. 
Default ownership is not broken per se, and we can improve it by 
setting up more components if needed (esp. in a modular model). What 
needs to happen is, perhaps, more communication between the default 
owner and the group before anything is actually assigned?

Especially when I can't even re-parse myself less than a week later.

They do. The current working draft icons have the whole font embedded, 
which makes them a bit big.
Stripping out the ones that are not needed, either roughly [A-Za-z1-9] 
or by scripting.

Ack'd, although I honestly considered the flat buttons an improvement, 
I realize that changing anything in this regard is risking a 
discussion-to-death. Fair enough.
