The latest public debugger release (1.2407.24003.0) includes the ability to define views (bindings of icon+name to data model query + view kind) which will place icons on the "Extensions" tab of the WinDbg ribbon. This is done through extension gallery manifests. Here is the basic documentation for doing so. Several extensions that ship with the debugger itself (including kdexts and the Linux kernel debug extension) make use of this and can be used for reference.
