Oh right, one thing I should probably mention:

I noticed that with this patch applied, the about:konqueror page looks 
*slightly* less nice if there is no exactly matching PNG for that size. 
Konqueror retrieves the icon path instead of the pixmap, and obviously relies 
on the returned icon being a PNG that can be put into an <img> tag.

If I remember correctly then Konqueror can very well handle SVGs (as long as 
they're not embedded in the HTML itself), so that issue should probably be 
fixed before I commit this patch. Even without the patch applied, that bug 
will still occur for SVG-only icon sets, so it's an issue right now already.

Hm... I guess I should open a bug report for that. Plus lxr all iconPath() 
instances and check if they make similar narrow assumptions.
