📄 Description

Works the same as #1250 just moves around its code a bit and makes music module use it, too.

One question I'm not sure about is whether for icon-prefixed labels we want the icon to scroll as well. Currently it doesn't.

Closes #1011

I think from here it would be relatively easy to extend it to just about any module, but I chose to move slower so as to:

Collect user feedback over a few weeks maybe
Consider design questions

E.g. music is obvious for my use case, and, say, Label or Script are obvious because they are meant to be as flexible as it gets, but outside of these it's not immediately apparent to me what should or should not be done :)
