Replying to [comment:38 scribu]:
> The problem here is actually too much flexibility. We can make it less
complex by mandating a precise sprite layout, i.e. the layout that is used
in the Core sprite.
Yes, please. This was intended as a simplification that does not add much
to how things are currently registered - follow a template to make your
sprite, give the menu_icon arg a name (and maybe just a true/false flag
for 2x and a pre-determined naming scheme), and be done. Complex
implementations where pixel locations are still needed to be known might
as well be done in CSS by the dev. Things like columns in a single sprite
might also be nice-to-have, but I can't see that being needed by
plugins/themes all that often.
