channel profile images
Support avatar icons for channels.
it would be great if the service and apps provided a similar API and UX to allow profile images to be assigned and queried for a channel.
This might work similarly to what is in place for users, where the Mattermost API supports getting a profile image for a user, except this request would provide profile image by channel.

Would be greate since the Private and World images get bored. Maybe they could move them to the right

This would make Mattermost much more usable. People are used to quick search in a chat list by image, as it is done in many other chat apps such as whatsapp or telegram. I always get lost when i try to find the channel i want to get in to and never remember the quick switch command.

Good idea, would make it clearer because all channels look the same
