It may be the last problem, but it can be worked on independently, so
volunteers can already start.

Normal icon sets are about common topics. Most Lazarus icons are
hard to map to such icons, because they are either about specific
graphics (e.g. TDBListBox, TMySql51Connection) or about abstract topics
(jump to implementation).
So you need a good deal of custom icons.
