Yes you have a point for NEW KDE applications.  But, we should also consider 
that KDE applications need to be compatible with other desktops that do not use 
CrystalSVG.  It would be best if there were an unthemed icon to install as 
HiColor, but if such an icon does not exist then it would be correct to also 
install the CrystalSVG style icon as HiColor.
