Comment (by scribu):

 > Restricting it to couple of values passed from PHP and auto-generating
 the css afterwards seems quite limiting

 We trade flexibility for convenience; that's what most APIs do. If someone
 doesn't want to use it, they're free to write the CSS by hand.

 > 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.
