Description HJ 2016-08-13 10:57:51 UTC

It would be nice feature if a desktop theme that does not include svg icons would check for the system icon theme first instead of using the default(breeze icon):

1: check the plasma theme for icons if no go to #2
2: check the x11 icon theme for the icon, if no go to #3
3: use the default breeze icon

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
a lightweight way to use the system icon theme im plasma

If we did that we'd break a tonne of themes.

And anything else isn't really do-able/maintainable

You should be able to Just dump a bunch of empty files with the same names as the icons in breeze and it'll fail to load them - and should fall back to system icons.

So what? then implement a checkbox so ever user can choose this for itself.  Anything is better than the current solution of having a mixed systray(kde apps are symbolic, libappindicatior apps are colorful...)
