Hadn't thought of this, makes sense. However, I'd like to point out that
while good for the eyes, the text with the icon didn't scale and the icon
was distorted for me. This seems like something that should be handled from
a centralized place and thus change the size of all icons, not just on a
per-file basis for the desktop.
