Display Unread Count in Admin Menu

  1. Just a small aesthetic thing really.

    When there are unread submissions, it displays the number in a circle; like with unapproved comments / plug-ins with updates. Although I did spot that you currently use it to highlight that GF has an update.

    And perhaps classes .empty / .unread on the menu item, so developers can swap out the icons depending on the status. Wanting to use the Fugue icon set's inbox empty/full icon.

    Bit of a nit-picky request I know...

  2. Yes, we currently use it for updates available. Not 100% sure if we will want to implement it for unread entries, primarily because then it would involve a query for that every time. The update works via the WordPress update information that gets cached.

    But it is a good idea, we will consider it. It gets a bit complex because the Entry badge would be across all Forms and then when you go to Entries you have to pick which form so you wouldn't know what form(s) it goes with.
