Description
Description
Issue created out of #320391 where @n-gist observed that with an extension which created a quickpick whose items were all the codicons, the symbol-* items lacked their colors.
Similar to #299650, which I fixed in #299753. That PR resolved the issue for Go to Symbol but not for quickpicks in general.
Another consequence of #267787
I will provide a repro based on quickinput-sample
