#11871: BButton class accepting BShape argument for its label

At the moment, one can pass a 'text' (''const char*'') argument to set the
text-label of a ''BButton''.
Would it be possible to pass a ''BShape'' argument to a ''BButton'' object
in order to create a button with a 'picture' instead of a text label?
I have seen how the ''mediaplayer'' solves this (for its 'transport'
play/pause/stop buttons), where it overrides the ''BButton'' 's methods
(especially the ''Draw()'' method) in order to achieve this.
In this possible solution, I imagine, there would be a ''SetShape(BShape*
shape)'' method (corresponding to the ''SetLabel(const char* label)''
method of the ''BButton'' class.
Would something like that be programmatically possible, especially with
regards to Haiku's ''LayoutManager''? I imagine that if it used
'overloading', this solution would not break any previous BeOS or Haiku
code.
