Well, I just took a glance around, and I think I found the texture files which are used to render those little symbols(I have seen them before, so I pretty much knew where they were). Here is the good news: It looks like it would be very easy to make them all the same shape(so they would not tell what class it was). Here is the bad news: they all appear white in the image files, which means they are being given color by something, either scripting which one of the UI boys could change or it might be hard coded.

Mind you, I did not spend too much time looking into this, if someone were to dig deeper, they may find I am wrong.

Edit: @ Sober, are you sure that the mechanism used in SHIII for those symbols is the same as SH5?
