Well, all the icons together don't take up that much space, and just
before I wrote about this, I had the problem, that I needed an xterm-hp or
hpterm icon. Just for that I needed to install ctwm (which otherwise I
don't use). And also, just looking at the names of the icons, there seem
to be quite a few duplicates.

I think putting the icons into the a single directory could be a first
step, but as the window-manager icons can also be used in other
window-managers, I don't see why I should be required to install all WM's
just to have all icons around. That's why I said I'd rather have all icons
in one package that is required by those packages that presently contain
those icons.
