App for testing

SUMMARY
Some icons show strange behavior when highlighted — they become completely white and unreadable.

I believe the issue is not solely with the icons themselves. For example, when using Kvantum instead of Breeze, the behavior is similar but not identical. The differences are especially noticeable when dark themes are used.

For illustration and better understanding of the problem, I have attached screenshots.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download attached main.cpp
2. Compile it
3. Launch it
4. Select in ComboBox or TreeView Downgrade, Remove or Warning item

OBSERVED RESULT
Selected item's icon is unreadable (full filled white color).

EXPECTED RESULT
Selected item's icon is highlighted and readable.

But only with Breeze? Does the same thing not happen when using Fusion?

I guess the usual selection color problem we have that also makes the folder white?

Yes, not only Breeze is buggy. 
Fusion: buggy TreeView; ComboBox normal, but strange folder color.
Windows buggy TreeView and ComboBox.

I tested folder icon, it has only white outline. It does not filled with white. So it is readable.

Does any of this happen with the default Breeze color scheme with no custom accent color specified?

Yes, all default Breeze color schemes have this problem.
