Actually, this isn't completely true: the struct DiskObject really contains the new images in its private data. The only way to retrieve it is by calling DupDiskObject() and passing the tag ICONDUPA_ActivateImageData. This trick is used by the Workbench as a workaround to display the new style image in AppIcons provided by non-V44-aware applications.

In fact, it is strongly discouraged because it installs patches on the icon.library with no support for the new extensions.

To prevent this from happening, you must explicitly set the ICONGETA_RemapIcon tag to FALSE.

This feature obsoletes the LoadV43Module command which was distributed with earlier V43 scsi.device and FastFileSystem updates.
