I should add that you would have to get the launcher to update by
broadcasting an intent with the action ACTION_PACKAGE_CHANGED.

You should not send this kind of broadcast.  In fact in newer platforms you can't.

that should be a general way to implement what Sense UI does by
changing app icons.

Sense UI probably has some special cases hard-coded in to things.  Being able to change app icons is something we'd like to do at some point, but has been a lower priority than many other things.  I don't know when it may happen.
