So it is not clear that firefox and other apps violate standards. Freedesktop.org standards specify that the window manager MAY scale the app-specified icon to appropriate size. This is written here: http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/1.3/ar01s05.html Developers knowing this may ignore the problem for ever. So, since (I guess) dtwm does not scale the icons, I see two ways. Either this functionality will be added at some point (which will allow scalable icons too) or dtwm should get a "ForceIcons" option as Isaac says about twm.
