Classic icon alignment sounds good to me also. Perhaps "position" instead of "alignment" is easier for non-native english speakers though. Also I wouldn't yet know how to turn it into a command. /classiciconalignment on/off doesn't really work. Does every option need a command?

It would be helpful for others to react to this thread if kev is going to take 3 months, maybe by posting it in the "suggest ideas" channel.
