+1 for using the vectorized logo for 2.0 release.

In addition to resolving this, it would be timely to address that the
standalone QGIS browser needs a distinct QGIS-based icon (see issue 5848
[0]). There are two versions noted on that page, but I think a different
badge, or maybe different color 'Q', is in order, to easily differentiate
the two apps when listed side-by-side at 16x16 in file system folder list
views.

The one I made has been in use in the Mac version for awhile, but I think
it is barely adequate when view in the Mac dock at smaller sizes. It would
be good to have several new versions to choose from.
