multiImage in SVG 1.2 can help with that.

Actually... you're hitting the main issue artists have with icons. For smaller sizes, pixel-level tweaking is usually needed.
You don't really need anyone on a given platform or tool, but you do need people good at smaller sizes. Then we need to list up all the needed versions. The 8bpp are mainly outdated, but 4bpp and 1bpp are often good to have.
Also... while we are at it, we probably first should list all variations for different platforms that we'll need. With things like Mac OS X, Windows 2K, Windows XP, Windows Vista, etc. there is quite a range.
