personally, i'd treat this like any other styleguide violation: being that 
Noatun is shipped with the standard KDE distribution,  it should use the icon 
theming like every other app. there are both usability as well as basic 
aesthetic reasons for doing so. 

i removed KsCD's custom icons for these same reasons...

and we already have icon theming in KDE, so those who don't like Crystal can 
pick another icon set and be done with it. as it is, Noatun breaks the 
consistency and user control that comes with icon themes.

there are play, back, forward, pause, etc.. buttons already a part of the icon 
themes so this shouldn't be a problem...
