I can see that. What I can't see is why there would be any branding in a shared library. The only reason I could see is that there's an embedded image included, and that's not a good idea if you're wanting to allow for re-branding.
Maybe your application is having an animated splash screen, which is drawn by code and not delivered as image?
I don't know if we still have such applications, but I know in the past we had.
I know. When I was experimenting with rembrand, and demonstrating how easy creating a de-branded installation could be, I found that xdm displays one that was embedded in /usr/bin/BackGround (xdmbgrd). As it was embedded, it was quite difficult to remove that image without either a recompilation or replacing /usr/bin/BackGround with a script that just returned an exit code of 0.
