I had simply underestimated that this is not a bug in KDialogButtonBox only, but broken all over the place.

Hi,
Jumping in.
I have played with honouring ShowIconsOnButtons in Breeze style directly (on a local branch)
Now: it is easy to get the icon not being shown, but the buttons are still "large", as if they would contain the icon. The reason is that, as already pointed by René, QPushButton::SizeHint already include the size of the icon to be drawn in the size it calculates and passes to QStyle::sizeFromContents.
So that you would need to either "undo" the size calculated by QPushButton in the sizeHint method (which sounds quite fragile I think), or indeed, patch QPushButton in some way ...
Comments welcome (especially if I missed something)
