Since I've now meet this problem in evince bug 
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=386226
let me complain about new way too. For other complains one can also read
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2006-January/msg00302.html 
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2006-February/msg00024.html
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2006-July/msg00797.html
as Luca kindly mentioned. 

Looking at Epiphany specific icons I don't quite understand why "download" or "bookmark-view" 
is Epiphany specific icon. Also I don't understand why quite ugly looking icon for 
sidebar should be evince specific.

I dislike the need to install all icons into ${datadir}/hicolor/... and don't see how it
will improve consistent look of the desktop. I understand that it's hard to maintain large
set of icons in gnome-icon-theme, but nobody tells maintaince is an easy thing. So if you'd
like to have small subset, you can just split icon-theme in two packages - maintained and
unmaintained one.
