This example is based on a solution given here and allows the left image of a table cell to be customized.

//Note that detailTextLabel.frame.size.width is not the width of the available space but is actaully the width requried to display the label, so will be shorter than the avaialble width unless the label is too long. When we increase the image area size we therefore don't substract the adjust amount from the width as this would truncate all labels, but we instead base the width on the total width avaiable.
