JBoss logo is a button for launching a server, a button for Central, an editor icon, and IN the editor too: confusing overkill?

                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-1949
             Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio)
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: central
    Affects Versions: 5.0.0.M5
            Reporter: Nick Boldt
            Assignee: Burr Sutter
             Fix For: 5.0.0.Beta1

The Eclipse coolbar has two buttons in it using the same JBoss "redballs" icon. In once case it's for launching server instances; in the other it's for launching JBoss Central.

Should we be using DIFFERENT icons here? Or at least an overlay (eg., a green triangle/arrow) on the server launcher?

Also, does the Central editor need TWO identical icons a few pixels apart?

See attached screenshot:
