See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=505116 I've tried to convince him several times of including some icons, but he's very keen on keeping the icon set as minimal as possible.

Patches have the tendency not to apply cleanly anymore after a while and thus lead to more work. Even with your suggested enhancements (having enabled/disabled icons) this patch still applies. If you manage to convince Rodney to get the icons in gnome-icon-theme I'll send you the necessary patch.
