Two issues that was brought up on IRC:
* Forward icon have a different tint of blue that reply.
* The text color used in the button makes them look disabled.
The reply button is vertically a few pixels short.

I think if we are going to work on some new icons for the mac we should try some simplified versions of the current ones.  These buttons have a bit less vertical height than the toolbar buttons so I think we want to optimize for that by only showing the most necessary pieces.  I'm thinking of the Mail.app type icons (as they are similar sized buttons) where we are showing mostly a sweeping arrow without anything else around it.

Also it's likely that the toolbar buttons have some text-shadow happening to make them look more mac toolbar button like and that is creating this color difference as well.

Bryan: what about something like this?

I like those a lot, very simple and effective.  Lets try them out on the mac to see how they look in the buttons.

Comment 6 reads to me like it is ui-review+, so I'm going to mark it as such and land.
