    <thetext>Icon and label attributes give the visible and textual representation of the command.  This is actually a really elegant way of handling what is now handled by &lt;a href&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot;&gt;Display Text&lt;/a&gt;.

Label is not currently required, but it should be.  Suggest adding an attribute that shows or hides the label, so you could have a button that is just an icon, but that has a label anyway.  This would be great for toolbars that shrink and grow based on widow size.</thetext>
