One of the ready-to-use layouts, "Zesty White", at least positions the icons to the left of the entry, though still not in conjunction with the user name.
If you're bothered by it, I came across some helpful step-by-step instructions for rewriting the style sheet, or importing a livejournal lay-out. I didn't save the links, but you can easily google it.
I find that I kind of like the disassociation, since I find the user icons less distracting - on the other hand, a lot of my friends tend to have about a half-dozen icons they habitually use, and it would have been nice to see those next to their names.
