📷 Icons in N-panel & workspace tabs - Enhanced Unicode icon support for Bfont
Supporting more Unicode icons and alt-codes would allow people to add custom icons to workspace tabs for further differentiation, see: youtu.be/Injyz-7wZgs

YES! I rather have icons than some of the unnecessarily odd and long names for certain addons. It'll massively solve the N-panel crowding issue in the meantime until a better solution can be found. This would also get people to make icon packs for popular addons or custom ones upon request which would add another level of customization for Blender's UI, which would be awesome!
An Expanding Iconspace would be cool, like in the T-Panel. When it's small it shows just the Icon but when expanded it shows the Icon and the Name/Text. Bonus: Toggle Checkmark in the topmost menu to enable either option only. Only Text, only icons, both (expanding).
If the Icons are text, you can just copy/ paste the icons from the iconviewer or an online icon site. That would be the easiest implementation.
