Accepted Answer

These guys made a great action set that does pretty much what you want.

I modified their version of the actions (JLRetinaPNGExport.atn) which you can find here. This action set comes with 2 actions:

  1. current layer export as .png at 100% then 50%
  2. merge visible and export as .png at 100% then 50%

Hope this helps
