No, icons should swap just like anything else.

Because switching colour themes does not change the appearance of PDF documents
or webpages, which often have terrible-for-the-eyes black on white.

No, because users use documents as well as the desktop UI.

And who's responsibility is it to recode the web in eye-friendly colours?
Custom CSS will only get one so far, so slowly.

Might this be reopened as an accessibility issue?
