Cornerstone feature request: add Dashicons to available icons for use in custom parameters

There are some great wordpress / template / block specific icons in the Dashicons set that could provide an intuitive option for some controls.

Could they be added to the icon options for the choose parameter control, perhaps with the dashicon: prefix?

Hopefully it may be a quick fix for a great increase in flexibility and functionality for templating and component creating.

Related to icons, would it be possible to include previews of the UI icons in the docs? Although many are pretty self explanatory, some are specific to areas of the Cornerstone UI that may not be so frequently accessed, so a quick reference in the docs alongside the list of UI icons would be much appreciated!

I could not figure out why the dashicons would not show up even when the CSS file was there, but I’m sure we’ll figure it out. We can make it dashicon: as you have pointed out.

There is an unfinished dev feature where it lists all available icons from before V6 I see. It needs some styling, but when we move the preferences area, this SVG list could have a good spot here. Thanks, have a great day!
