It wouldn't be needed to move the icons to plasma.

What about adding an option for desktop themes to specify a preferred
icon set and then add eg. loadIconPixmap method to Plasma::Theme that
will use custom iconloader?
This way it could be also possible for 3rd party themes to use
completely different icons.

For applications, maybe something like
KIconLoader::global()->setTheme() could work.
