[Bug 1431384] [NEW] Need a mechanism for specifying an ical event's icon

 

Public bug reported:

This issue was raised in discussion with mzanetti, who would like
reminders (created with reminder-app) to be shown in the drop-down menu
with that app's icon.

datetime currently is implemented with "everything is either a clock-app
alarm or a calendar-app event", which is not an approach that will scale
to 3rd party apps. I suggest we add something like an x-unity-alarm-icon
tag to the ical components to let clients specify their own icon as a
string that gets passed to unity8.

See related bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-
datetime/+bug/1426519 for letting the clients, rather than datetime,
specify the behavior when the menuitems are clicked.
