Well, I'm not an artist, so I have to work with what's available. The
current icons are taken from the Gnome project and the works of Jakub
Steiner[1].
My line of thinking for the Users and Groups icons was something like
this: Even though it says "Users", you're only really editing one user
at a time. Whereas "Groups" applies to more than one user. And so I
found these two icons, representing, in my view, "one user" and "more
than one user" and went with it.

While I agree that it better represents the "groups" idea, I think it's
a little too crowded to fit in well with the other icons. IMHO as a non-
artist only, of course. I'd box to the majority, though.
bye, Dirk
