Removing folder icons in Breadcrumb bar

Hi,
I think this will be useful
1. Enable/Disable show folder icons in Breadcrumb Bar
2. Also in Directory History, Directory Hotlist..
What do you think about this?

No thanks.
This will make it inconsistent : Folder icons are shown everywhere (filelist, separate tree, ...) and is more confusing then helpful.

So, what about this "Enable/Disable folder icons in Breadcrumb Bar"
I'm confused why Breadcrumb bar always show folder icons (unlike history, Directory hotlist.. etc)

How about combining it with the option
Configuration - Options - Icons - No icons?
+ Info ?

Good evening,
• It could be the solution, but IMHO needs some info like i.e. :
(•) No Icons (neither in lists, nor in Breadcrumbs-bar)
or so, there is room enough…

Would that mean that I would have to give up my file icons, just to get rid of the folder icons in the breadcrumb bar?
That's a bad idea.
There is information to get from the file icons (associated program etc.), whereas the folder icons in the breadcrumb bar actually has no purpose - only standard folder icons are shown - except for virtual folders in the first level - under the permanent arrow-down.
It would have to be an item selectable for itself.

Actually they do have a purpose: They also show plugin icons for file system plugins, and which folder is currently open for normal folders. I will consider a separate ini setting, but maybe take the setting for file list icons as the default if this new setting isn't set.

Thanks ghisler and all for response.
How about add a checkbox "Show icons in breadcrumb, history, hotlist bar" in Options - Icons
Or
Maybe a simple solution - Remove all icons in breadcrumb bar by default (like hotlist, history)

As I wrote: "except for virtual folders in the first level"

That sounds satisfactory
