Just FYI - the icons used for javadoc suggestions are taken straight
from the javadoc module's "Auto Comment Too", so it's supposed to be
consistent. (Except for "missing" it uses the error icon, which seemed
inappropriate - so I used the error icon as a badge instead, just like
the lightbulb.)  (I don't want the "missing javadoc" errors to have
the same icon as compilation errors since (a) they're not as severe
as compilation errors, and (b) if suggestions use the same icon, they're
harder to identify.)  I agree that the tasklist/javadoc icons need work!
