Context
Reference custom field types support the Teams object. Users can see the icon set and team color for teams when selecting them from the search modal.

Issue
However, once selected:

  1. The team icon still defaults to the default UsersMiniIcon instead of the custom icon.
  2. The team icon does not inherit the color set for the team.

Users that utilize these features do so for a reason. The app should support displaying them across all surfaces of the app (web, desktop, and mobile) they can display including:

  1. Spreadsheet views (Lists) for Goals, Teams, Portfolios, Projects, and Browse Projects
  2. Board views for Projects
  3. Gantt for Portfolios and Projects
  4. Timeline for Portfolios and Projects
  5. Custom fields tables in TaskPanes for Tasks

Areas Already Rendering This Behavior
The team icon already appears as expected for rendered pills when @mentions in areas using ProseMirror such as Descriptions for Tasks, Projects, Portfolios, etc.; comments; and text areas within Note objects.
