 > Can you explain the use case for the scale property?
 It can be used instead of size to resize a rectangular image.  The size
 property is both the width and height of the resulting image which
 restricts the icon to square.  With scale it alters the size by
 maintaining the aspect ratio of the image.

 toolbar should just use the toolbar size. If you explain the use case for
 this we can probably figure out a better solution to your problem.
 Typically, they should be a standard size but not necessarily.  I've
 written a Creative Commons license selector widgets based on CanvasIcon
 and ToolButton.  The reason I need rectangular icons is because each CC
 license is represented by as many as 3 icons next to each other.  Thus the
 icon is approximately three times as wide as it is high.
