--- Comment #7 from Nate Graham <[email protected]> ---
Interesting. After reading that again, it does indeed seem like there's wiggle
room here for our implementation to have a different behavior. I'm re-opening
this ticket and moving it to KIconThemes, where KIconLoader (which implements
this behavior) lives, and also CCing people who have thoughts on icon theming
from the perspective of an app developer, who can check my reasoning.

I think the idea is to preserve visual fidelity by not presenting icons from
multiple themes in the same UI. But I agree that it's probably better to do so
than to preserve visual fidelity at the costs of losing meaning.
