I do understand what you mean.

However, I think this feature is worth a toolbar icon, and I don't know
which one to use if we name it Restart (but see below).

On the other hand we have two Clear icons on the main window now, one in
the main toolbar and one in the filter toolbar which are doing different
things, which may not be a good idea.

For this reason, I tend to agree with you.

What do other's think of the features name?

P.S: I found an excellent collection (>1200!) of icons released under
LGPL, that fits perfectly into the GTK stock icon layout at:
http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/1637.html, so we have a lot
more choice now (my own skills in art are very limited :-)
