Should we list the naming conventions that we support (mainly just "@2x"?), or

As mentioned back in April
(http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/awt-dev/2015-April/009197.html), Apple
may ship an 8k iMac this year (and if not, certainly next year, IMHO).
I think it would be foolish to only support @2x and not also @3x, which has
been supported by XCode for quite some time now.
There is a performance issue that the Toolkit.getImage(url) needs
to check if @2x, @3x, ... exist for any given image. It especially
takes a long time when images are stored on a remote server.
May be it is better to have a system property which can contain a
list of possible suffixes and used by Toolkit.getImage(...) methods for
resolution variants loading.
