Artem: this is a good idea, thanks.
Mike: I'm trying to do something like this:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~anthony/8-15-lowResIcon-7148275.1/
i.e. I'm feeding an NSImage with images of all available sizes.
A sample test provides a list of icons 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, and 64x64.
I've verified that they all get added into the representations array.
However, even if I resize the dock to be very very tiny, it still
chooses the 64x64 icon to represent a minimized window. This is actually
wrong since the 16x16 icon would look better in this case than a resized
64x64 icon.
Any idea how this can be fixed?
Another solution would be to take an approach similar to what we use on
MS Windows: we query the system icon size, and then choose the best
image (see SunToolkit.getScaledIconData()). But I can't find API that
would allow me to determine the current dock icon size on OS X. Is there
any?

It was fine for 7uX, but can we do anything better for JDK8? Is the
largest icon always the best? I remember on Windows we use another
approach to find what exactly icon from the list to apply.
Thanks,

This is a direct forward-port of the same fix from 7u4.
