Comment (by GaryJ):

 The comment from three years ago regarding apple-touch icons is now well
 out of date. For covering all of the related features in browsers and
 operating systems, you'd need something like:


 {{{
 <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="57x57" href="/apple-touch-icon-
 57x57.png">
 <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="114x114" href="/apple-touch-icon-
 114x114.png">
 <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="72x72" href="/apple-touch-icon-
 72x72.png">
 <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="144x144" href="/apple-touch-icon-
 144x144.png">
 <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="60x60" href="/apple-touch-icon-
 60x60.png">
 <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="120x120" href="/apple-touch-icon-
 120x120.png">
 <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="76x76" href="/apple-touch-icon-
 76x76.png">
 <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="152x152" href="/apple-touch-icon-
 152x152.png">
 <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="180x180" href="/apple-touch-icon-
 180x180.png">
 <meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-title" content="My Awesome Website">
 <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/favicon-192x192.png"
 sizes="192x192">
 <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/favicon-160x160.png"
 sizes="160x160">
 <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/favicon-96x96.png" sizes="96x96">
 <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/favicon-16x16.png" sizes="16x16">
 <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/favicon-32x32.png" sizes="32x32">
 <meta name="msapplication-TileColor" content="#2b5797">
 <meta name="msapplication-TileImage" content="/mstile-144x144.png">
 <meta name="application-name" content="My Awesome Website">
 <meta name="theme-color" content="#182148">
 <link rel="manifest" href="/manifest.json">
 }}}

 Unless Core is going to support all of these image creations and manifest
 generation, then I think this feature should be plugin material.
