"Updated class prefix for all icons: .glyphicon- instead of .icon-. We changed this for a more unique class, but also for consistency with the newly required base class as noted above."

Seriously, how is that in any way helpful?

So that people who ship alternative icon packs (e.g. font-awesome) no longer have to hack around[1] the bootstrap style?

When I implemented Bootstrap 2 with an existing site I found that the icon sprite was getting loaded on random pages. Turned out there was existing CSS that used "icon-" as part of the classname which was getting picked up by the Bootstrap CSS.

Yeah, this is going to be a bit of a pain. Plus it looks like you also have to add .glyphicon? So instead of .icon-plus, you now have .glyphicon .glyphicon-plus. :(
