Well, it would not be a problem to export the manikin in various sizes
and insert it into the triangles of the current icons.  But those
triangles suffered from scaling as well.  For example the 12px and
20px triangles have a somewhat bumpy top.  BTW, the 12px size is close
to undoable/useless as it does not allow for enough detail of the icon
and does not stand out between other letters.
