Hi devs,
I'd like to propose 3 things:
1) Add support for symbols/emoticons using our new system in XWiki Syntax 2.1, i.e.
image:symbol:<symbol name>
Another possibility is: image:icon:<icon
name>
+1 for icon scheme
ex: image:symbol:success (for the success symbol)
2) Use the existing silk icon library and be able to reference all icons using their file
names as the symbol name.
I'm -0 for file name. As you say below, I think generic names
independent from the underlying icon library are better.
Just to be clear: when I said file name I meant file name without the extension of
course.
Thanks

For ex,
image:symbol:thumb_up
3) Modify the Box macro to accept a
ResourceReference as its image parameter so that all valid image resource references can
be specified (including the new symbol/icon scheme).

WDYT?
This will solve the emoticon/symbol need + the generic way of adding a box with any
symbol.
Open questions:
A) Do we need to handle icon size? If so, how? (answer: with an image parameter)
B) Do we want to expose all silk icons? What if we use another library later on, will we
be able to support all existing silk symbols? Thus, do we need to pick a subset and settle
on names independent from the underlying library?
For A) IMO we don't need it now and we can
always use an image param later on if need be.
For B) I'm tempted to think that a set of well-known symbols independent from the
underlying library is better (but more work since we need to define that set and the
names).

Thanks,
Marius
