Fedora Core Linux's official UI theme is called Bluecurve and distro maintainers try to keep it consistent across different desktop frameworks (KDE and Gnome that is).
I stumbled upon a Bluecurve page on FC Wiki. New isometric icons look nice... but only where isometric look is appropriate.
It's kind of stupid to have isometric icons for "back", "forward", "fast forward" and so on. Consistency is good, but if you have to tilt your head or rotate an icon mentally even a little bit, this is not good for usability at all. And usability is really what is important at the end of the day.
