Comment (by markjaquith):

 Summary of IRC convo with helenyhou:

 '''markjaquith''': On one hand, plugins using core images is a good thing
 — means they're at least attempting to stay with Core's UI. But on the
 otherhand, these are images we're not using anymore.[[BR]]

 '''helenyhou''': basically, i agree that images that aren't used in core
 itself anymore aren't really core UI anymore. and i want to kill them all
 off. but don't know how that's going to make plugin/theme devs feel.[[BR]]

 '''markjaquith''': If we do that, we're signalling that plugin and theme
 devs should supply their own images. Which could just be copies of
 ours.[[BR]]

 '''markjaquith''': I'm actually okay with saying that plugin and theme
 devs should use their own copies. I mean, the images could change anyway.
 We could update colors, update gradients. So they're already at our
 mercy.[[BR]]

 '''helenyhou''': markjaquith: i'm okay with that, too.
