Arguably it should depend on the context: a simple rule would be that if an
icon has text, it should prefer the current theme as the text will disambiguate
it, while if it doesn't have text, it should prefer a more specific icon from
the fallback theme even at the cost of stylistic inconsistency. The problem is
I guess it would be difficult to change the code in such a way that the icon
loader know this.
