So to summarize I would like to see clear responsibilities for icons and labels for classes and methods:
Class Icon: Kind
Class Label: Package (extensions in italic)
Method Icon: Sub, super implementation (if necessary maybe the super could have a stronger color if super is called); maybe show halts with a red flag because this is something that should catch attention over everything else
Method Label: Package (in italic if it is not in the same package as the class, in red if it is an override)
I think that would make more sense and would be understandable without having to explain much.
Yes thie is good to have both label and iconic convention. Stef
