    Description

      Qt is unable to load icons from extra folders.

      according to the freedesktop icon theme specification it is possible to create extra context(icon folders) http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/icon-theme-spec-latest.html#context

      but if i create those extra dirs eg:

      [48/misc]
      Size=48
      Context=Misc
      Type=Scalable
      MinSize=8
      MaxSize=512

      Qt is unable to load icons from these dirs

      whats the expected behaivor?

      like gtk, qt should search all folders defined in the index.theme for its icons(it also completely ignores the pixmaps dir ($SYSPREFIX/share/pixmaps), too)
