IMHO emacs should use the same icon on all platforms. If this icon is deemed better than the current one, the we should switch. Not sure who can make this decision, probably RMS. Also besides this icon emacs uses many other icons. Nowadays on X11 it will try to use the standard Gtk+ icons. But those don't cover all the emacs needs. So help improving the rest of the icons would be greatly appreciated.
