Yes, they should be avoided.

I've moved the icon in other packages of mine before (I think WinFF, now 
team maintained here), to accommodate for the choice in AppStream to 
consider the package containing the icon to be the thing to install. I 
don't like it, because the icon fits nicely in the -data package and I 
had to create a "main" package to begin with IIRC, but I agree with the 
submitter that we should adapt to how the world works in this case.
