Agree. We have a possibility to save work for the icon artists right now. 
First, xcf files in kdeart-devel module, and second we can separate mimetype 
elements from mimetype icons and upload them to kdeart-devel. I already have 
a lot of these elements ready for copy and paste (I used default elements for 
my anti-icons). So the artists can just change mimeempty (paper and/or shape) 
and paste an element on top of it.
