Icons in menu entries

[virtualritz]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I would like an easy way to add an icon (i.e. just a char) to the left side of a menu entry.
But in a way that the text of the actual entry starts at the same position for all entries in a menu. Kinda like at a left-aligned tab stop.
The icons themselves would be centered horizontally in the resp. area on the left.

This is what happens if one just uses a space to separate:

⟲ Factory Reset App State
🗑 Clear Recently Used
⚙ Preferences…

In the above list you can see the alignment of the first entry doesn't match while the two below look 'good enough'.

Below I bracketed the ⟲ character with two thin spaces to get the alignment I want but this approach is only feasible when the font is never changing and still fiddly at best:

 ⟲  Factory Reset App State
🗑 Clear Recently Used
⚙ Preferences…

I am not sure if this is in any way possible already with TextStyle?
