sent before I could finish it…

in general, though, you probably want to have properly sized widgets
and assets — and not rely on the GtkIconSize enumeration.

you either use scalable assets (wherever appropriate) and size the
widgets according to your theme and/or application style; or you
pre-render the assets at the right size, and then load them as they
are.

if you're using GtkIconSize, you're probably doing things like menus
or buttons containing an explicit icon, and defining them in code,
instead of using the XML description.
