The current spec describes how to apply icons to some of the existing elements
(e.g. links) in a backwards-compatible way.

For toolbars, that's probably a fair point. Unfortunately, that's kind of
blocked on the component stuff.

It doesn't apply to the context menu aspect of this though.

It's not a "fallback path". It's the main way of using the feature. It just
happens to work well for fallback.
