Safari RSS

Dave Winer comments on Apple's announcement of Safari RSS today. He mentions a wish that they had respected the orange-on-white XML icon that represents RSS feeds. I'm not certain I agree. I know what the icon means but is it clear to users. If I'm trying to educate somebody about blogs then it should be simple.

Although the browser is named Safari RSS it also supports the Atom format. Should it use a different icon for each format or the white on blue text that it uses?

It would be nice to see Apple give credit to the folks who came up with the RSS spec.
