Subject: bug#51361: 28.0.60; NS toolbar icons are too big and low res

Fair enough.

Now that rsvg support is built by default, svg seems to be the sensible
choice. Although maybe the icons in the toolbar are rendered natively
and emacs svg support is not even required? Good svg icons are a dime a
dozen (but replacing every icon in emacs doesn't strike me as the most
exciting task...). Both NS and Wayland still do a raster downscaling at
the end for fractional scales, so no solution will be pixel-perfect in
such cases, neither svg nor double resolution pixmaps, but with svg you
won't be having the same problem in a few years and, for platforms that
do support direct rendering at non-integer scales (maybe Windows, I
don't know), svg is a natural choice.

Best regards,
Carlos
