Then this should be called pkg.icon.24px or some such. There's really

Seriously? You support X Window Dump format? BMP?
Nikon RAW files? Macintosh PICTs?
I think it'd be a lot better to constrain this to a
small, well known list, rather than rely on whatever
underlying image library gnome is using.
