I am not sure that it would be a good idea to combine all icons in one file
per directory. This would make things a bit harder for your own code to
mess around with icons - you'd have to know a bit more about the file 
structure to do so.

Rather than spending time on this, Commodore should work on speeding up the
drives, not necessarily in hardware, probably by just doing a bit more
software caching.

I liken combining all the icons into one to "notes" vs. "news".
I've just moved to a "notes" system, and while the "notes" interface is
a bit better than "news", it is a bit harder to use if, say, you want 
to grep for something - since "notes" are all in one file, while "news"
is in several.
