Yes, good idea. What do you think of the current freemap/osmeditor2 icons? 
(they are already the same). I drew those though I have to admit that drawing 
is not my strong point - some I have to admit I quite like, but others I'm 
not over-fond of. There are plenty of POI types which still need icons, mind, 
so any contributions gratefully received...
