Does this actually solve the problem you want to fix? Have you looked  
into what causes the icon to occur into the doc in the first place?  
What are possible side effects of setting this property?

I'm definitly -1 on changes this flag before Python 2.7 and 3.1, and  
before these questions are answered. If the flag gets added the reason  
for it needs to be documented, to avoid it getting ripped out later on.
