I feel that this is up to the sysadmin or user to take care of.
Fvwmbuttons config is a pretty personal and individialistic thing.
Fvwm should probably not have fvwmbuttons buttons for programs that might
not be installed (like netscape..) but should just have a few buttons for
stuff we know is installed (ie, xterm). If the user wants more, they can
add the buttons themselves.

Isn't there some large collection of free icons out there? I forget the
name of the package, but it's not part of debian yet. It would be a good
starting-point, though.
Some packages may want to provide their own icon for the menus, for
example, dosemu already provides an icon in its package that's used in
the menus.
