Bathroom Signage

[jack]

How should toilets be signed in an ideal world?

I decided to try a third party poll site, though I'm not sure I like this one:

(If you have gendered toilets at all, rather than unisex-only.)

I don't like the skirt/no-skirt symbols, but all the others seem more open to misinterpretation.

I think that internationally recognised signage is the most important thing, and that pictorial representations (rather than letters/words) are the way to go for that. Unfortunately, I can't then come up with anything better than what's already existing ...

I think the ideal situation would be all unisex, in variations (1) large rooms with lots of cubicle toilets for efficiency (who cares if a person of a different gender sees you washing your hands?), (2) extra-large single-room toilets for wheelchair users/anyone who has trouble with the cubicles, (3) family-oriented toilets where there's a room a with baby change table, small-child-height loo and sink, etc (some of the ones I've seen have multiple toilets, too).
