[kdenlive] New feature "force breeze icon theme"... should it be default?

[Sebastian]

Hi,

I think the same reasoning as for darktable, which also has a unique
appearance, applies here: UI must not distract the user in his work.
Kdenlive focuses on images and other graphical elements. A distracting
UI has crude colors and fancy fonts and other style elements. Have a
look at darktable, which has a very low distracting UI (dark gray
background, white color etc).
