As far as I can see the css3-content draft[1] already allows for this to  
be accomplished, without the image() part.

book[new="true"]::before {
     content: url(new.gif), 'New: ';
}

(At least on the Web, I go by the rule that a document should be usable  
with (author) styling disabled. But it also seems clear that the specs  
acknowledge the possibility of decorative text strings.)
