Research direction

Review the icon-set counts in the linked gist and read issue #192 first, since it is identified as easing this change. Then inspect the current icon definitions and determine which non-Seti icons can be consolidated without losing necessary coverage; done means Seti is used wherever possible while required exceptions remain functional.
