For the same reason as last time I answered this question for
you. ;-)

It doesn't use the icon loader because that would be totally
broken - it reads the icon the window specifies in its NET
properties (via the KWin interface). Otherwise you couldn't
change the icon dynamically etc. It asks for 48x48 icons,
but none of the applications are currently publishing a 48x48
icon in their hints. I suspect this needs fixing in KApplication.

Cheers

Rich.
