Yeah, I always have to check which one is what too. I've tried to redraw some in Designer (cheating a little) and also reorder them (exchanged Join Curves with Close curve) since i believe it makes more sense this way. This is what I end up with:

The names could also change to:

Break node

Join Nodes

Smooth path

Close path

Reverse path

Better - although that glue icon is a bit unconventional it makes sense. 

 

The icons should also grey out when you can't use them - e.g. when I've selected just one curve (path) I can still click join curves which obviously does nothing. 

 

Names are wrong though. Should be

 

Break node (or break path)

Close path

Smooth path

Join paths

Reverse path

 

and they would probably make more sense if reordered like this 

 

Break path

Close path

Smooth path

Reverse path

Join paths

MEB, I like your suggestions for icons.  They are easy to figure out which is which.  As long as the user can distinguish which is which the order and name aren't all that important.
