Based on the discussion with David in the hangout, i would still do:
- the look and feel package provides qml files for some parts of the shell
- most theme elements (icons, plasma theme, widget style etc) are usually 
provided only referred in a config file
- if a theme wants to phisically provide something, like a plasma theme, icon 
theme etc, it can, bout would be task of the kcm to either copy or make a link 
of say, the icon theme in the proper directory where an icon theme would be 
expected.
- or in alternative, the theme could be specified in the config file as a full 
path, so for icons if you are using the "foo" look and feel package, you could 
have in kdeglobals

[Icons]
Theme=~/.share/plasma/lookandfeel/foo/icons
