You missed my point. I'd like a code methodology (implemented in GPL'd
PHP) that would be able to go out and download CC-licensed icons *at
the end user's prompting*. Ideally, I would have a nice little banner
in the theme options page saying something to the extent of "This
theme looks much better with the Silk Icons installed. Click here to
download and install them automatically." Using WP Filesystem, of
course.

Anyone see a downside to that?
