I highly recommend that after you do make the switch, you make the switch retroactive; that is, go into to your existing forms and change the classes of the object that already live there.
It's got the right path, and I know it can find the icon because it displays the icon. It's close enough that I know it's the right icon, but it looks mangled.
Thanks,
