I’ve already considered splitting some of the libraries in libgtk2.0-* in separate packages, but this is interesting only if there is a real gain in doing this. I don’t think icewm alone is enough of a justification to split this library. If you’re really interested in it, could you conduct an archive-wide study listing packages that would benefit from the splitting? Cheers, -- .''`.
