I fear there are a few icon ids used already in Calligra code which are not in part of the oxygen icon-set as published with KDE 4.3. E.g. those with the "-calligra" postfix are also found without that postfix. And the "merge" and "split" icons you gave as example are in fact used with the "real" name multiple times in the very same file, it's just those two occurrences which are "unreal".

I guess Calligra really needs some way to automatically check the correctness of the icons used with regard to the minimal dependency. It's not easy to get an overview yourself, and most might simply look for an icon within their current system, forgetting that the icon is not ensured to also be in the 4.3 icon set.

You might have seen my blog post about how that could be solved by using some kind of macro-based markup for icon ids. During the WE I experimented with that to see how it works out. Will post the resulting patch as a separate review request to collect your feedback now. Extracting the icon-ids and comparing against the list of icon-ids in 4.3 (as well as the ones coming with Calligra) still needs to be implemented, but it's really time for some first feedback :)
