If you are running "trunk", then you are on the latest revision.. They are available right now in the nightly build. Install the nightly, and try them out.

Site Icons

We’ve wanted site icons in coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. for a long time. #16434 was opened four years ago and will be resolved as fixed for 4.3.

When you see a sidebarSidebar A sidebar in WordPress is referred to a widget-ready area used by WordPress themes to display information that is not a part of the main content. It is not always a vertical column on the side. It can be a horizontal rectangle below or above the content area, footer, header, or any where in the theme. obscuring content on a phone, you can be pretty sure you’re witnessing lingering desktop bias. These screens were designed for desktops where you have room to use  sidebars. You can’t make a screen responsive and call it ready for a phone. The image flow effort is working on this.
