I found the thread accidentally... The assumptions are correct, even though
Latte is trying to use plasma code directly as much as possible the icons in
the Latte taskmanager are painted by Latte. The reason for this was that there
was no other way to support the parabolic effect otherwise. The Plasma.IconItem
will always paint the best fit icon based on the enabled icon theme. For icons
with size lower than 64px. that breaks the smoothness of the parabolic effect.
In the end the decision was to fork PlasmaCore.IconItem and follow its
development closely in order to update the implementation of Latte.IconItem .
The thing is that personally I dont understand very good the painting taking
place in IconItem(s) and if something can be done better.
The source code for Latte.IconItem can be found here:
