How to customise action icons [message #1715308]

Hi all,

I am doing a redesign for a RCP product and currently working on introducing a new icon theme. Thereby I managed to override icons for several standard actions in the action bar advisor class by assigning an image descriptor before adding the action to the menu and/or toolbar. Also I could hide some other actions I do not need in order to cleanup the UI a bit.

While this is working fine, there are still a few actions left which are contributed by the platform (I guess), for example:

* Window > Editor > Toggle Split Editor
* Window > Editor > Clone/Copy
* Window > Hide toolbar / Show toolbar

These entries are instances of HandledContributionItem which are not an IAction anymore. Any idea how to inject a custom icon for these without an application model?

TIA,
Axel

currently the following actions are possible:
drag
scale
scaleX
scaleY
rotate
remove (custom)
moveUp (z-index, custom) since 0.0.3
moveDown (z-index, custom) since 0.0.3
rotateByDegrees: int (custom) since 0.0.4 (origin can now be set to anything)

Default action is: 'scale'
