I had thought about adding a "default" icon name
(since naming schemes tend to the standardized theme
days). Right now it is horribly hard coded, and I
would probably have some to the conclusion that this
is the only way to solve the problem, by including
default icon names. It is an easy step to changing
styles on the fly.
