I filed a bug 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webbrowser-app/+bug/1505970 
but I think it is a good topic of conversation as well.

The icons for various applications on the phone have been updated 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webbrowser-app/+bug/1457424 
they are all square icons, without using transparency, and universally 
look wrong on the Unity desktop in the dash and alt-tab switcher and on 
the launcher.

With Unity 8 for the desktop is this the expectation of what icons will 
look like going forward? On the phone these square icons are rendered 
oversize then cropped to an ubuntu shape (a roundrect), will this mess 
up all the existing desktop icons or work well with them?

Alan.
