Ok. But I wasn't completely right. We _can_ have something like a
"library icons directory". All we need to do is to register it (whereever it is)
to KStandardDirs's icons resource, in the library initialization code
("main" constructor). Then any app or part using the lib will resolve the
icons just fine.

Great !
Don't forget to use the KWORD_RICHTEXT branch for KWord.
