Hmmm... wouldn't presume to speak for Apple or their lawyers, but it
seems clear that certain icons they expect developers to use, directly
or indirectly, such as the standard toolbar icons. There are others
they clearly don't want us to use (the iApps application icons, the Mac
OS logo).

The one that you're referring to seems pretty innocuous, so my guess
would be that they probably wouldn't take issue with it, but you might
want to send them a question directly via DTS.
