Yes, there is no reason for KDE to specifically make Gnome theme icons. 
  I accept that fact that their generic theme (Gnome) and our generic 
theme (KDEClassic) don't exactly match.  But, they are close enough to 
use together without a sever style clash.

It was suggested on the XDG list that a standard set of HiColor icons be 
made to go with the new standard names.  This theme would then have its 
home on FreeDesktop.org and not belong to any one Desktop.
