--- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <nate at kde.org> ---
Thanks for the idea! Note that the context menu is already customizable.
However I'm afraid I don't think this icons-only-buttons-in-menus trend is a
good one. In general, icons-only buttons have worse recognizability by users
than UI elements with both icons and text. This becomes even more true for
buttons that are not visibly buttonlike, as the ones in your screenshot.

In the case of back and forward actions, this would probably be fine since
those arrows are universally recognizable. However Dolphin's context menu
doesn't current;y have any navigation controls in it, and there are no plans to
add any.
