Then we agree. We should still have the ability to override category icons for
nodes that have an icon... Or simply specify an icon for every nodes, though
many can point to the same icon. I prefer the secondoption.

Actually, the user shouldn't even be able to tell the difference between a
subnet and a builtin node.
