stock_folder icon overwrite bug

KDE Plasma Version: 5.8.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.26.0
Qt Version: 5.6.2

As a regular user setting an a custom icon through dolphin's folder properties dialog on a root owned folder results in all stock_folder icons being overwritten.

To try and replicate:
 - Right click any root owned folder (e.g /mnt/) and open the Properties dialog
 - Change the default icon to something else
 - refresh dolphins view and the icon becomes default for all folders instead of just the selected folder.

You are not setting a custom icon (you cannot do that on root-owned folders), you are changing the *default* icon for the inode/directory mimetype (through keditfiletype5, not part of Dolphin but of kde-cli-tools). This is why you see that icon on all the folders, is the intended behavior.
