I've finally managed to create some mock-ups of what I think would be good emblems (see attachment emblems-mockup.png). They are not in any way for real use, I just used stock icons to show my idea.

Some highlights:

- emblems have different color (the purpose of the bug)
- emblems have mostly different contour shape
- to address the idea of uniformity all emblems have one common detail (a green round pad) that I tried to make both small enough to not interfere with emblem's shape and to be recognizable from first sight
- the color of the pad is green to not merge into orange Human folders
- the pad's green is intended to be the same shade as on Human 'OK' arrow though I was a bit lazy to copy it exactly, sorry for this!
- emblems are small for two purposes: to not confuse them with other icons and to not create too much visual garbage when placed next to tightly arranged icons (they are now 22px but could easily be shrunk to 20px)

So what do people think about this idea?
