I think using out config command line tool it would be this:

% kreadconfig --file kdeglobals --group Icons --key Theme --default oxygen

Which basically means (assuming the default INI-file backend) one of KDE's 
config files named "kdeglobals", a group labelled "[Icons]" and a key 
named "Theme", defaulting to "oxygen" if the field is empty.

We could probably add a D-Bus interface (if it doesn't exist already) for 
doing the same read without external tool invokation.

Cheers,
Kevin
