If you intend to have gotten numbers from the KDE pre-Crystal you should have 
used kdeclassic since that's what hicolor was renamed to:

philemon: /opt/kde-cvs/share/icons/kdeclassic/32x32> find . -name \*.png | wc 
- -l
    681

And while I see what you're getting at with the large number of icons, I think 
letting "the apps handle it for themselves" would be both bad for concistancy 
and reuse of effort.  Practically speaking that would only produce uglier, 
less concistant apps.
