My Emacs already shows nice icons in the toolbar, though, thanks to GTK3 theme integration. And weren't we talking about removing the toolbar?

To be clear, I'm using SVG icons there in the video. And I think the discussions around emacs-devel showed certain rejection of the ideal of using of fonts for icons. Would be nice otherwise, though. If perhaps a tad limiting.
