You are lucky. I'm serching too :-)
And I'm making an icon theme to test them. Ask me.

I prefer http://jimmac.musichall.cz/i.php3?ikony=30 -> keyboard
(actually we are using keyboard3d, but keyboard is really better, if you
need to resize it)

g-i-t/48x48/apps and you don't need to replace current :-) But theming
them seems that metacity don't want use and keep old from
$prefix/share/pixmaps

It's used from Application->Home entry (and the small launcher in top
panel, default config), but yeah, both should use gnome-fs-home from
theme

It's used somewhere... Oh, yes, in startup splashscreen. Besides I think
both splash screen and desktop button shuold use gnome-fs-desktop from
theme !!

probably used or duplicated

it's used from Desktop Prefer -> Advanced (this should use a simple
gnome-fs-directory)

I spend last two week downloading them from jimmac website or making
with GIMP and collecting in a working icon theme. I'll send you if you
want. It's not finished and it needs a couple of patches that I don't
yet made (differen icons for Office and Other, an icon gnome-proxy
different from gnome-globe), but, yes, GNOME interface became really
good and cool
