Description

addPortletLink is a JavaScript thing that one may use to customize toolbars, including the main menu and the tools menu.

I have occasionally used addPortletLink to add custom links to various menus. As an active contributor and administrator, I have also activated some gadgets that use addPortletLink to add links next to the "Edit" buttons atop an article, that aid me in keeping track of important tasks. A problem with these is that there does not seem to be any way of adding an icon to these, rendering the buttons entirely empty using a mobile view.

My user experience would be improved if it was possible to add an icon that is used when mobile view is also used. It would also be nice in some other menus (such as the one that pops up when you click the user icon in the top right corner).
