Yeah right, have you looked at the Tracker PoseView code? It's almost
10,000 lines! :-O

Seriously though, I've found Tracker's behavior in this area also
quite strange and annoying. I frequently use the 64x64 icon mode when
creating new icons and it generally results in a crazy mess. Hopefully
aldeck's work in his Tracker refactor branch can fix some of this for
alpha 2. Unfortunately fixing one part of Tracker can tend to
introduce other bugs. I guess that PoseView code is a bit too coupled
and does too much.
