 @r-a-y
 looking at your code block suggestion above I'm not sure how that would be
 implemented  -  I question not the fact it's undeniably better and cleaner
 - just how quite that improves the readability / code structure of
 BP_Button() I/we still need that logic to build the final element to
 return which means those if/else blocks to construct elements, add tokens
 etc ?

 >BP_Button is starting to get hard to read.

 I agree however I'm just extending what existed and to some extent
 although slightly more complex also slightly  easier to grasp, I thought,
 regardless if it can be better written great but I hope we don't pass this
 update over simply as we haven't!


 As to what I'm attempting to accommodate I'm working with:
 `/bp-templates/bp-nouveau/includes/classes.php (BP_Buttons_Group)

 and:
 `/bp-templates/bp-nouveau/includes/activity/template-tags.php
 (bp_nouveau_get_activity_entry_buttons( $args ))

 Manipulating the $buttons args being passed to the nouveau class which in
 turn calls bp_get_button()

 As found in the Nouveau template pack on bp github.
