Yes and no.  The spec at
http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/icon-theme-spec-latest.html
says: 

"It is recommended that the icons installed in the hicolor theme 
look neutral, since it is a fallback theme that will be used 
in combination with some very different looking themes. 
But if you don't have any neutral icon, please install 
whatever icon you have in the hicolor theme so that all 
applications get at least some icon in all themes."

IIRC JRT said at some point that kdeclassic icons look 
more neutral than crystal ones. 


Christian.
