Err, yes, but it is unclear whether or not those'd be guaranteed to exist
on future devices. It'd be a whole lot safer, and fairly negligable size
difference, if you just embedded that small icon in your own app.
I suppose the benefit of trusting that the icon resources still exist would
be that if we changed the artwork, you would automagically get it as well.
That's a tradeoff for guaranteed compatibility with future devices and OS
releases. No clear answer.
