Yes.

Sticker-files should be just the stickers, not stickers-stuck-on-parts.

The numbers for the sticker files should use the ID number printed on the
sticker sheet, but I don't remember if the long (7 digit?) or short (5
digit) number is appropriate.  The Numbers Committee would know.  Since
there are generally multiple stickers per sheet, each filename would
require a suffix to make it unique.

The 'thickness' issue was never decided, I think.  But LDraw doesn't model
solid objects, so having thick stickers wouldn't offer many advantages.  So
just model the sticker in 2D.

I'd also say just model the actual decorative pattern of the sticker.  Do
the plain edge if it seems appropriate.
