sorry, but I just now had the time to check this out:

cd ~/.nautilus/emblems
for i in *.png
do 
  cp -av "$i" ~/.icons/gnome/48x48/emblems/emblem-"$i"
done

for the themes I tried it works (Smokey-Blue, gnome, Crux).

However somehow the scaling seems to be wrong for larger images... so I
prefer the way to drag+drop all emblems into the emblems sidebar...

anyway, while this copies the emblems to the right location still the
keywords have to be adjusted.
