Table: Context Menu-Only Row Actions

[rhenness]

Prerequisites

• I have searched for duplicate or closed feature requests
• I have read the Modus style guidelines

Proposal

The current table component displays a number of row actions inline within a designated column. Once the inline space is exhausted, additional actions are placed within a context menu dropdown. This feature request proposes the ability to move all row actions to the context menu dropdown, removing them from the inline display entirely.

Requirements:

1. Context Menu-Only Actions:

   • Provide an option to configure the table so that all row actions are placed within the context menu dropdown, with none displayed inline.

2. Icons in Context Menu:

   • Ensure that icons can be displayed next to individual row actions within the context menu.
   • Allow customization of icon colors within the context menu to give the consumer more control.

@enowak1031 We may want to escalate this one as it's behaving differently than the majority of design doc requirements. Can this be bumped closer to the front of the review queue?
I am willing to implement the feature

@ryan-henness-trimble Your proposal has been reviewed and accepted by the design team. We would gladly accept your contributions.

PS: Icons in context menu - The modus-list component is used in the dropdown and currently accepts left icon as prop, if your requirement is to show icons on the right side which is one of the variants as per Figma, then we need to change the selected state as well.
