I dont believe this is a good idea for reasons below. 1. Just because it's artwork dont mean they should go into kdeartwork unless you have a big plan to move everything to it. 2. Stuff already in kdeartwork is not even classed as artwork(unless you plan to move it elsewhere). 3. Plasma themes are very small in size, so unless we have about 30 themes by the time we get to 4.5(which shouldn't happen anyway) then size is a non issue. 4. What about people who dont want whats in there already?, crystal icons, screensavers, ect.., they just want a few plasma themes not the whole lot, yes any seasoned cmake dude can install what they want but thats not the point. 5 Packagers, yes they do split them up already but this means even more split up(we may well make even more work for them) ,surely a factor to consider. Anyway thats my view as a plasma theme maintainer.
