I was referring to
image: arrow_out.gif, or just image: arrow_out (although this second one would 
be even more complicated).

Of course is not core, but I don't see why two, and, as a user, I think I'd 
find 
  it hard to grasp when {{icon}} and when image: and why not only one of them.

This shouldn't be a stopper anyway, it's not that that important...

Happy coding,
