btrfs volume icon changed from something disk-looking to a folder in 2.4.0

Sorry for this late report - I thought I'd filed it before, but can't find a trace anywhere, so I'm doing it now.

With blivet-gui 2.4.0 (it seems), the icon for btrfs volumes changed from something sort of disk-y:

oldvolicon

to, well, the folder icon:

newvolicon

This seems like a bit of an odd icon choice. Was it intentional, or a mistake?

That's intentional: #360 I've been using the "drive-multidisk" icon for btrfs and LVM, but the non-symbolic icon was removed and I think the symbolic one just doesn't look right. The folder icon is also bad but from my point of view less bad than the symbolic icon. I am definitely open to suggestion for a better icon or a better solution (but I'd like to avoid packaging my own icons).

Btw. this is how the multidisk icon looked originally:

OK, I'll mark the openQA needle as just a normal needle not a workaround, then. thanks!

Thanks. I'll try to remember to warn you next time I'll decide to change something.
