Why would hicolor be distro/ISV specific?
Because a hicolor theme everyone likes visually isn't going to happen. People will want to modify what's in that fall- back for theming reasons, and distros theme to differentiate themselves. In the "hicolor as fallback" scheme, there are two ways to affect what icons actually show in KF5 apps outside Plasma: - Make sure this environment outside Plasma, whatever it is, has a Qt platform plugin available that reads some setting somewhere that overrides hicolor by specifying a theme. (This is how Plasma itself solves this.) - Manipulate what icons are actually in hicolor. If we introduce a "preferred system fallback theme" config option in the spec that overrides hicolor, and make Qt aware of it, that avoids either work, which is more extensible to new environments.
