I like the basic idea and started something similar years ago: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Map_Icons
But as all others allready said, the situation is a bit complex. For every kind of map usage, another design would make sense (with/without buttons, 16x or 32x or SVG, level of detail, ...) and so it's hard to get all this within a single step.
In my eyes the only thing you can do, is to encourage people to start a new icon set/add missing icons, by giving them a working map that makes use of this icons.

Could someone or a group come up with a more standard set of icons please? Currently JOSM has its own set, various rendering systems have their own sets but a single recommended set that covered more would be better. Currently skateboard, Softball, T-ball, toboggan are things that don't seem to have an icon. Locally we have splash-pads where young children can run in and out of a spray of water. Very useful in hot weather but not something I'd expect to see in the UK for example, however a standard name and an icon would be helpful.
