That's the kind of ones I was referring to. Also stuff like volume
up/down, battery indicators, the calender +/-/check icons, most of the
"hand" ones, a bunch of the "user" ones. I can't see those EVER being
used in a map! By the time you remove them and all the brand ones then
you're probably down to about 20% of the original set.
