Yeah. icons with sizes haven't been widely adopted. We've been advocating (for 
a few years) to try and improve that. Even if we have one, there is a good 
chance that icon will not be designed well to sit against the sites "color". 
For instance, the Twitter icon is basically invisible if you put it on a blue 
background (we already pull the blue background out from the icon in places and 
lighten/darken it before we show the icon in front). We could use masking 
tricks if the icon has an alpha channel and a well defined silhouette, but its 
better if the site can provide something for this purpose rather than us 
cobbling together multiple sources.

There is link[rel=icon] with sizes attribute (support for multiple sizes 
ongoing, don't have a bug, though, sorry!). There is also talk about supporting 
link[rel=apple-touch-icon], esp. for B2G.
