The Add-Ons manager uses a colour averaging filter to grey scale disable icons. However the most common strategy (as used by my paint package and also apparently GIMP, according to Wikipedia) is to match the luminance of the grey scale image to that of the colour image. This is most readily achieved through the use of the saturating SVG filter to completely desaturate the image.
