First, say that I'm not an expert. I'm just working in adding some icons
to my app, found that, and became curious about it.

The standard is here:

http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/icon-theme-spec-latest.html

The path format is described in the fifth paragraph, in section
"Directory layout".

Anyway, as I say, it seems to work. I was just curious.
