 Yup, forgot about that. Not ideal how its implemented but that's how it is
 now.

 Next suggestion would be 2 separate params... one that handled the 32x32
 screen icon and a second that handled a sprite for the two 16x16 icons for
 the menu. I think it'd be simpler/easier to leave these as a file per CPT
 instead of the intricacies of building a sprite sheet for a site. That way
 if a dev ads a new cpt there's no need to regenerate a full sprite sheet,
 instead generating one with just the 2 menu icons for that post type.
