Remarks
McDBNode objects are associated with zero or more Icon thumbnails, which may be retrieved or set, by Index, using this property. If an McDBNode instance does not have a requested Icon, its McDBType.Icon at the same Index is returned. This inheritance/sharing of icons, allow centralization of the binary data representing the Icon and simplifies administration of multiple similar McDBNode instances. Existing icons may be cleared by assigning an Empty variant to Icon(Index).
