thanks for reporting the bug report. The issue isn't breeze dark theme related. I think it's a mix between missing icons and missing icon sizes.

as you submitted a lot of screenshot it is well documented what is needed, now I only have to find the time to make the missing icons (sizes).

can please someone else check the bug report. I have Inkscape 1.1 flatpack and there are predefined icons which are nice, but the inkscape flatpack package didn't use breeze-icons from system theme.

If you want to see the problem, in Preferences>Interface>Themeing, select "Use System icons" as icon theme and disable "Disable symbolic icons". And you should use KDE desktop not GNOME to see clearly the exact behavior.
Comment 5 medin 2021-11-11 20:18:17 UTC
Inkscape suffered from both native UI and icons themes that make the interface looks so much big with incomplete icons, so the idea (like how Gimp solved the same problem) was to implement their own theme for small laptop screens which called "Minwaita", and also the ability to create customized icons based on user selected colors which is called "Multicolor" icon theme.

I can't reproduce this issue with Inkscape today; can you? I suspect it was a bug in either GTK or KIconLoader.

You are right, I tested with Inkscape 1.3.2 on Plasma 6.0.2/Wayland, and apart from some minor duplicated icons, it seems all Breeze icons appear correctly inside Inkscape when system icon theme is selected in Inkscape preferences.
