Yes, one thing leads to another and it gets complex fast. And you have to set priorities.
Maybe it can be for later, but to my eye, the information density in the file browser isn't high enough. In complicated projects with many folder and files, that results in a long scrolling list that I seem to be constantly navigating. I’m not a spring chicken, but I use Panic San in 11pt, or Source Code Pro in 12pt, as my editing font. The big 16pt font in the file browser looks out of place.
Some of the other popular editors have ended up with custom icons that are simpler and scale down well. They may even be SVGs in some cases. But then that’s more work for someone to create a set of those icons for the many possible file types in a project.
At any rate, please keep this as a place holder until you see if such a feature is popular enough for the effort it would take to implement.
