I don't think it makes sense, i mean who would install stuff to 
hicolor/actions/document-open.png ? oxygen? breeze? tango? someothericonset?

For applications it makes sense tha application to install to hicolor since 
the application "owns" the name for that icon, but noone actually owns the 
document-open.png action so that's why i think it makes no sense for it to be 
there.
