_filesystem_. The remainder hicolor/scalable/apps is unclear for me. Method 1 could be used. But there is also package _hicolor-icon-theme_. Is that package an "explicitly created -filesystem package", so method 3 could be used? That would feel natural, because hicolor is the fallback theme that must exist according to freedesktop.org specification.

Yes. hicolor-icon-theme acts like an "other explicitly created -filesystem package" here. It only contains the directories, cache and triggers.

Maybe we should explicitly mention it in the guidelines, because it is a very common situation.
