Is there a trick to using this with ToolbarButton? Right now, it seems to only
support something like:
  iconSource: Qt.resolvedUrl(...)

Looking at askubuntu.com[1], this turns into something like:
ToolbarButton {
    text: i18n.tr("Refresh")
    iconSource: Qt.resolvedUrl("/usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mobile/actions/scalable/reload.svg")
}

It is rather awkward to have to specify the full path like this. I hoped
something like this might work:
  ToolbarButton {
    text: i18n.tr("Refresh")
    iconSource: "reload"
}

Then run with:
DESKTOP_SESSION=ubuntu-mobile qmlscene /path/to/file.qml

but that doesn't work.
