On Windows the ONLY standard toolbar icon size is 16x16, at least judging by 
Microsoft programs.  So it would be nice if this was supported, and even better 
if it was the default.

Two notes about Windows toolbar icons:

* Other sizes are supported in the sense that if you choose a non-standard DPI 
zoom then the toolbars should scale accordingly.  It would be good if this 
could 
be changed in LyX, even if it's just ugly bitmap scaling. As I noted in bug 
#7187, this is the only part of LyX that doesn't currently scale properly 
(apart 
from the splash bitmap).

* In practice the icons in MS programs are often 14x14. I guess this is so that 
square-looking icons are visually the same size as non-square icons (e.g. 
circle 
or cross shaped icons) which extend outside the 14x14 virtual boundary. Their 
true dimension is still 16x16 though.

Finally a comment about LyX small icons: at the moment they're not that useful 
because the standard toolbar doesn't shrink when you choose them. I guess this 
is because of the layout dropdown.
