Icon Mapping to override DocIcons
Using Icon Mappings within the MatchPoint Configuration it is now possible to override icons specified in the DocIcon.xml file of SharePoint. This can be done using the "File extension" prefix in the IconMapping node.

Furthermore it is possible to use following predefined root elements: 'File Extension', 'Content Class', 'Crawled Content Class', 'Content Type'. Use 'MatchPointDefaultIcon' to define a default icon, which is rendered if no other pattern matches.
Note, that the well-known patterns using and * will work as in previous versions of MatchPoint.
