 > PS: i am expecting a function like `wp_require_theme_file( '/inc/icon-
 functions.php' );` and it will do `require get_template_directory() .
 '/inc/icon-functions.php';`

 As noted above, this can already be achieved with `get_template_part( 'inc
 /icon-functions' )`, or `locate_template( 'inc/icon-functions.php', true
 )`, though I don't see any significant benefit over `require`.

 I agree this might look a bit weird semantically, as `icon-functions.php`
 is not a template, but it works as expected.

 Given the lack of traction for the last three years, it doesn't look like
 there's a need for yet another function at this time.
