It's neither about icons nor strictly speaking "text" labels, but I'm bothered by the spread of menus titled "+" or "..."; they are a new thing, and they make stuff harder to find. In the 1990s, "..." was reserved as part of text labels, and it had a clear meaning: "save" without "..." saved a file immediately, whereas "save as..." with the three dots indicated there was another dialog coming once clicked (to determine the file name). The new uses of "..." (alone) don't mean much, as far as I can see.
