I'd say no.  The WM shouldn't be imposing policy on what the default
fallback icon for a window is.  All other apps I've seen that use this
info from windows have their own fallback icon.  You can never guarantee
that _NET_WM_ICON will be set.

Yes, it probably should go to the dev list.  Not sure if the WM author
reads xfce at .
