Relevant Info
Valuable Info from Adam:
Chip has sort of served as the “badge” use case (some DS make a distinction, some don’t) and while Action is a common place for that kind of display it could be valid elsewhere too.
We could look at a way to handle this just in Action for the time being as it’s the most commonly asked context. Badge-count or something, would need to handle intl numeric characters, more than two characters, etc.
Technically right now users can slot things inside actions and fudge around with padding etc but we don’t doc that
More info in response to if this functionality should be a standalone option or an augmentation to current indicator:
I think there's value in the themeable dot still - we've also had requests for "adornments" like a checkmark icon, security badge icon, etc., sometimes in the context of Avatar but also in the case of Action. Scoped to a numeric value, I'd think we'd only want one visual to be possible - like if you provide indicator-count it overrides the indicator dot, etc. (now, badges usually top-right where indicators bottom-right, but that's kind of implementation q)
We should discuss if we can handle numbers, icons, and just the generic dot with a single badge property or slot which could possibly deprecate indicator.
