You're mostly right. Facade does disk icons only, not other icons.
It's name dependent, so if you make a special icon for your hard
disk named "Fatty" for example, and you inserted a floppy named "Fatty",
it would have the same icon.

I use it in conjunction with Icon Colorizer and the result is quite
pleasing. 

Of course, all this becomes obsolete in Sys7 as that capability's
included in the finder there.

But it's a good "hang in there" solution till Sys7 stablizes.
