Let me get this straight. There will be two sets and the tango will be used in linux?
Yes
The ability of changing the theme using a custom file won't come back?
The intention of theming is that Inkscape's icons should be consistent with the rest of the desktop. Instead of changing Inkscape's theme file, you should change your global icon theme.
What happens to people who wants default icons in Linux, or people who wants Tango in Windows, for example?
Tango on Windows: rename "tango" to "hicolor" in icons dir and vice versa (note that the "tango" directory doesn't exist yet). Default on Linux: make a new icon theme in ~/.icons that inherits from the theme you use and put default Inkscape icons there (I'll put some docs on how to do this on the wiki once Tango is ready), or contact the author of the theme you use and tell him/her to add icons for Inkscape. Note that this may seem more complicated than before, but what we ultimately want is theme authors shipping icons for Inkscape, rather than just having a choice between two defaults.
