Design Modification Request: New Temple Icons

Gordon Collett said: I really like the new simplification in the temple icons in that it is very clear when ordinances can be requested to be taken to the temple or not
However, it is clear that the change is frustrating for people who are working to ensure that all their ancestors, relations, and extended family on all permissible lines have all their work properly shared with the temple. Looking at the various places that the icons can be seen such as the pedigree views, the descendancy view and the person's detail page, you can only see if you yourself have reserved or shared ordinances with the temple not if someone else has. Unless one has a better memory than I, this will lead to repeatedly checking the temple page for the same people over and over to see if some ordinances need to be reserved and shared.
Since the goal is to have as few colors as possible, may I recommend what I hope would be a trivial programming challenge.
It would solve many people's concern if there were two green icons.
1) A solid green icon that would mean some ordinances are present on the individual that can be requested and are not shared with the temple.
2) The current green icon with the temple image that would mean that all ordinances have been shared with the temple and can be requested to be completed by any user.

Right now I don't know if this one had been shared with Temple or not.
Even more, don't know if I already printed the card or not when both are of same shade of color of green.
Don't forget I am dealing with more than 3,000 because there's less than 5 relatives working with me (German > Hungarian > Romanian settlers and descendants.)0 -
