That's getting bigger and bigger as we speak!

I'm okay with requiring 128x128 for default applications, but 256x256 might
be asking too much...
I'm not sure what to do. I guess have 256x256 as MUST and 512x512 as SHOULD?

Do you have statistics on apps shipping 256x256 icons in Fedora right now?
How many are there? How many non-gnome apps do that?
