"so the doc is always in sync"
Of course no: icon sources are svg files, but toolbars, menus and many other pictures are created
only by screen copy (there are no other way).
And if pictures are containing texts, screen copy update must be made for all languages.

So, be careful with modifying icons: be sure it is worth: the cost is *high*.
