I don't believe the icons have been changed to use a standard set of
colors, but I recently submitted a patch to the "workers list" that
change's the icons colors to a "standard" set as they are displayed.

This would allow users with 24 bit color to display icons as-is, and
users with 8 bit color to restrict colors as desired.

I think this is a superior solution, and hope that my patch is
included in the next release.
