Comment:

 The 192x192 icon is already a multiple of 48. Is it common for sites to be
 unable to provide a site icon of that size? I don't know one way or the
 other.

 Regarding [attachment:"47417.2.patch"]: Google lists 48px, 96px, and 144px
 as example sizes that meet their criteria, but it isn't clear to me that
 they also expect sites to add link tags for each of those sizes. Is it
 necessary to generate each of them?

 Even if it's decided that the 192x192 icon is sufficient, it might not
 hurt to add a note to the docs for that size to indicate that it's used
 for Google search results as well as `App icon for Android/Chrome` so that
 the size isn't removed so long as it's used by Google for that purpose.
