I really don't think it's a good idea to have separate hard-coded logo image files for IE and everything else. It's already bad enough that you have to overwrite files installed as part of MediaWiki to set the logo displayed by Monobook (*separately* from the other skins), now you have to do two, and remember to do the one that your browser never shows?
It just seems like a lot of trouble to maintain.
They could both be indexed, but i wouldn't like the indexed look in a modern browser, especially with the book behind it. The png hack for ie doesn't seem to work with some versions of 6.0. Giving ie an opaque background might be ok for the mediawiki logo, but imo not for a real site. If the default logo was placed in the main style dir relative paths to that one would be possible as well. Any objections against this?
Furthermore, the indexed ie version can be commented out by default in the release if needed to avoid newbie woes.
