Various web browsers and other WebKit clients do different things with the icons. The icon code built into WebKit needs to respect those policies. Adding features to the icon loading code is fine, but the features need to serve the needs of the web browsers.

Thus, the HTML5 specification tells us how to correctly parse the link element properties, but does not specify exactly what we should load based on those.

That’s what makes this a challenging project.

I presume there is some specific Chrome goal here. It would be good to know what that is and how these changes will work. Those of us at Apple will also need to consider how the changes would affect Safari as well as the many Apple and third-party applications that use WebKit on Mac OS X and iOS.
