We could draw some icons ourself after GSoC.

Could you open some feature-request tickets?
We can think about these and then see if someone is willing to implement

I'm not sure about the "more info" but the others sound like good features
to have.
Lets try to keep the codebase stable for the few days until the GSoC
deadline in a few days.
