Please, lets follow the spec for KDE 4.0.  I don't know how long the spec has 
been around, but it's too late to fiddle with 3.5.  KDE 4.0 should "play 
nice" and follow the freedesktop.org standard where they apply.

I'd have no objection to a option (hidden or otherwise) to restore the old 
behavior ala:

When multiple themes provide icon(s) for a particular role:
(*) Minimize inconsistent style.
( ) Minimize scaling.

[+ other options as desired.]
