wrong app icon

            IcedTea-Web has new set of icons, but it's not applied to started application that does not has it's own
            icon. See attached screenshot.

Current behaviour is correct, if swing app has no icon - jdk icon from java.exe launcher is used.
New IcedTea-Web icon is used inside ITW swing forms and in windows "Programs and Features" form.

But thats still a bug isn't it? Yes, it have correct default icon, but ITW should have set this
icon. Or not?

I think this may be considered as a new feature, but I am not sure whether it is feasible to
implement it (my knowledge in AWT area is lacking). AFAIU icons are set per window (jframe) and AFAIU2
ITW won't have control over the windows created by application.

Fair enough. Still I wouldlike to have this opened, until it is properly tried and investigated.

Just to note, that such feature is effectively useless for RH builds that are going to have the
same icon (shadowman) for both jdk and itw.

I think I dont wont to know, what patching is happening in that git fork/build tool you rule. Still
if this is properly done in ITW, it shouldbe even more comfortable to do so in the RH openjdk's msi.

            I realized, that this is incorrect, as currently shadowman icon is not applied to java.exe in RH builds
            (probably should be applied in future); that is not directly related to itw though.

Why the OS label is changed from "Linux" to "Windows"? Shouldn't the icon handling be consistent on
both Linux and Windows?

            I currently see (not a latest ITW) a "Nx" (from NetX) icon on Linux on loading window and an OpenJDK
            icon on app window.
