I tried it but unfortunately I have several issues with it:
* the first one, that may have avoided all the others: I discovered the existence of this thing just now. the default plasma theme is the one thing that
I'm sorry this looks like a complete refusal of it :( but again all of those could have been avoided with a different workflow
* It doesn't use the stylesheets, colors can't be dynamically changed (of all the issues, I consider this one the absolute showstopper).
* there are embedded images that are used just as references (like in button) this makes the files heavier to load
* actionbuttons won't work that way, it will break all round buttons that aren't radio buttons (as the checkmark won't be rendered correctly as well)
* I really don't like shadows of one single pixel, especially in the panel/popups (while i don't like the plasma theme trying too hard to look like the desktop theme, the depth of the shadow was the one thing that should have been either consistent or even a bit more, as they are at an higher z-order than the other woindows)
* besides being one single pixel, the shadow is wrong at the corner, the background is one pixel rounded, while the inner part of the shadow is square, leaving an hole of one pixel at the corner. On high dpi displays that would become very visible
* I really, really dislike the taskbar, looks cluttered and somewhat "old"

Icons in the system tray are taken from the icon theme. Icons in Kickoff are not monochromatic as only 16px and 22px icons are monochrome in Breeze. Better padding overall for elements. New visual for both task manager widgets that matches the states of the buttons. Checkboxes, raio buttons, sliders and scrollbars now have the colors used in the Breeze colorscheme.
