Comment (by markoheijnen):

 Unsure why leaving out {{{.ico}}} support. The proof of concept I wrote
 made this really easy. See
 https://gist.github.com/markoheijnen/abe4f4ed0f52178218a3.

 I know people didn't like storing it somewhere else but the code could be
 a good start to not use wp_crop_image but something custom and maybe
 better fitting.
