Hey Marco,

I'm not sure if this is really a good idea. Using KIconLoader::IconSize() is a 
good idea for toolbars and such. However, in a plasma layout I don't think its 
a good idea to let the user change the size of the icons. It can and will mess 
up the layout. For example I use the same size for "Toolbar" and "Dialog" 
because I like big toolbars. I certainly don't want to the unmount icon to be 
that huge in the devicemanager plasmoid because if that...

regarding the scaling: I was thinking that Plasma uses SVG icons... Reading 
throught the QIconItem code I see now that it doesn't. In that case its 
obviously not good to freely scale it around. Maybe it should be replaced by 
PlasmaCore.SvgItem?
