For now I would switch to breeze dark theme as it is the only dark theme 
we have. VCL_ICONS_FOR_DARK_THEME functionality is not complete because 
it modifies other images too, not just toolbar icons. I'm working on a 
functionality that will combine HiDPI and dark theme manipulation as 
well as on demand creation of icons from SVG and caching, but this is 
still far from ready.
