The exact (two) colors are themable with faces, I suppose, but yes, we 
do lose a little "character' that way.

OTOH, black-and-white has much higher odds of being compatible with an 
arbitrary color themes/desktops/toolkits, so it should be a good choice 
just by being neutral. Unlike the previous icon set which only really 
fit the default GNOME 2 palette.

And if we really wanted more character, we should order our own icon 
set. Perhaps ask some volunteer designer, to make sure they fit the 
default color theme, or to create a new color theme as well. It's a big 
project, so wouldn't exactly rely on this happening in time for Emacs 29.
