 Replying to [comment:13 scribu]:
 > Why exactly would you need a param inside register_post_type() to add
 CSS? Just hook into 'admin_enqueue_scripts'.

 That's how it works at the moment, right? And the css would need to be
 added one way or the other. Restricting it to couple of values passed from
 PHP and auto-generating the css afterwards seems quite limiting (and it
 could still be overloaded from 'admin_head', etc.).

 A good enhancement would be to add an HTML ID derived from the CPT's name
 on the div that takes the icon as a background so it could be targeted
 easier with css.
