Wow ... thanks, I had no idea. That change has completely passed me by.
Allow me to row back somewhat:
$ locate kde4/apps | grep icons | grep svg | wc -l
134
$ locate kde4/apps | grep icons | grep png | wc -l
1090
Looking through /usr/share/kde4/apps/*/icons it seems that, er, perhaps
PNG is the dominant icon format after all. Obviously the number of PNG
files on disk is more than SVG because there are renderings for each size:
konqueror/icons/oxygen/48x48/actions/google.png
konqueror/icons/oxygen/64x64/actions/google.png
konqueror/icons/oxygen/32x32/actions/google.png
konqueror/icons/oxygen/22x22/actions/google.png
konqueror/icons/oxygen/16x16/actions/google.png
but eg from akonadi/ braindump/ and calligra/, there is precisely one
SVG icon. So it seems things are bit more nuanced than I had thought.
I guess this is all in aid of a more luscious pixel-sharp desktop so it must
be a good thing :)
Yes, in a time where there is more diversity of screen resolutions than
before, vector graphics make more sense.
Besides Inkscape (which I last used an aeon ago on Windows), do you believe I
could use Karbon ("a vector drawing application ... support for ODG, SVG, PNG,
PDF, WMF) ? That would surely be the KDE way I'll try it.
Haven't done any of this for years. Just had a play with Karbon and
Inkscape. Karbon is more basic than Inkscape, in particular the View >
Icon Preview feature is relevant here.

We'll have to still wait for some time to get all the plasma 5 packages to experimental. They are waiting for approval in the NEW queue ( https://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html).

Yes, I've inspected the available widgets ("add widget" in English), but I
couldn't find anything
that looks like it provides for search.
But there is /usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.milou/metadata.desktop, in the
"milou"
package, which starts with the following. It seems like it doesn't have any
effect:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Search
I think, I'll have to be more patient, and wait for milou (and other KDE
packages) to enter Sid.
After all, it's called "experimental"...
