The following issue remain with HawtIO for this release:

HAWNG-767 Cannot inject custom icons as Application Menu entry: The imageRelativePath property must be relative to the route host hence is currently limited as to what icons can be used (the poweredby icon is a Red Hat branded image). Need a way to inject such icons into the path, maybe via including them in a configmap (another one??) or including them directly in the CR using base64 (CSVs do it).
