Actually I tried to mimic the already existing code, e.g.
org-font-lock-add-priority-faces.

I'm unsure it's the best approach either. I'm wondering that all these
(while (re-search-forward)) could slow things down.

I'm not sure I fully understand the font-locking code, but it seems like it
performs several -- possibly many -- regexp searches on one part of the
buffer, alternatively adding or removing text properties, right ?

I'm just wondering, could this be rewritten as one or several state
machines, that would trigger text properties addition/removal only once for
a given part of the buffer ?

Well, thanks for your support !
By the way, you didn't give your opinion on using icons yourself. Please
confess us, are you a text-only addicted kind of guy, or a flashy, glossy
icons amateur...?
