They're app specific icons, and so, they're not "stylable".
Btw, these shouldn't be in the hicolor directory, some days ago I moved 
them so that they are installed to crystalsvg (but again, note that 3rd 
party apps should install those kind of actions to their hicolor 
directory)

I just fixed that in cvs, thanks for reporting it.
The about pages now show the icons from the icon theme the user is using 
and those icons you mention have been removed.

Those are app specific "pictures" (not even icons), and so, they shouldn't 
be installed into any global icon theme. Also, note that that directory 
doesn't contain any theme name, and those pictures are loaded "as is", 
without applying any effect nor anything.
