It's not an icon, but a styled character (DOWNWARDS TWO HEADED
ARROW).
You can see this as a performance improvement: one less image to
transfer, one less HTTP request, fewer bytes to transfer since the CSS
text is small. Sure, a plain white character is not as rich as a 24-bit
image, but it's not that bad, right?
I don't like it much because it has a rounded shape, and our theme is
mostly without curves. IMO it doesn't fit nicely.
* the 3D
effect suggested by the "Stable"/"Latest" flags doesn't make
much sense to me
I don't think that was intentional, it was supposed to use a
styled
character (like the download one) to create a continuous ribbon, but
this isn't very "safe", since a seamless continuation between the sigma
lines and the following border depends a lot on the fonts available on
the system, on the current zoom level, on the system DPI, etc. I'd
rather replace it with a simple rounded border on the left side, which
is more bulletproof.
The "flag" is too small and you can't figure out easily what it is.
We
should find another way to implement this if we want to keep the idea of
flag. IMO the white small flag doesn't integrate nice, leaving the
impression that the UI is cool (which it is) + that small flag is being
something added with force to the UI.

"file" word is redundant in the "Type" column
