Yeah, I agree 100% .. that would not be a good thing .. and will definitely
not happen. :)

I'll be working on the icons later today, I'll give the Fr / En one a try
and see what the client prefers.  We may end up using the full words in the
end.

Thanks everyone, for the suggestions.  At least it wasn't just me that found
it a rather difficult task.  :)
