Bug Description

LibreOffice 4 in Ubuntu 13.04 (normal version, daily live cd) does not use the Human icon theme by default. It has previously been suggested that this is either an opinion or that when using the libreoffice-gtk/-gnome the default theme is human, however this is not the case in a clean Ubuntu 13.04 install.

Using the Human icon theme in all default Ubuntu applications ensures consistency across different applications, and since the theme does show up in the list of themes available for LibreOffice under options, it should be used by default. This is a matter of consistency, fine tuning and attention to detail. Therefore, I think this should not be considered as an opinion, but rather as a bug (and a relatively easily fixed one, since only the default selected theme needs to be changed, the theme itself is already installed).

The Human icon theme used to be the default theme for OpenOffice, so I consider this a regression.

Human was the default theme for Unity desktops for most of the time. There is no point in forcing e.g. a KDE desktop to default to a misfitting Human theme.
