The 'user' icon that sites next to the username or login link in Vector skin is a low-resolution raster image, and appears visibly pixelated on a high-resolution display such as the third-gen iPad with Retina display or when zooming in. Recommend replacing with a SVG, with PNG fallback.
I fix that.
There is a problem: some browser doesn't support two backgrounds (the fallback).
Maybe we can get rid of the icon altogether...

Removing assignee, as the patch was abandoned and nothing else happened.
