In general, it would be nice if the icons and other images displayed in the ide present a tooltip explaining themselves.
This could be achieved by providing a core API call for displaying icons and images in the ide, which can assert whether
there is an associated tooltip; ensuring any image explains itself.

This issue can also be looked at as a documentation issue rather than a code issue; so, an alternative means for solving
this issue would be to have a wiki page which documents any icon when the image is approved by the UI group for checkin
to the workspace. One thing to note for in the method is that it may become hard to search for an explanation by image,
given the large number of images. This can perhaps be solved by having pages by module/functionality and limiting each
page to only a few images.
