Markdown Mermaid Diagrams Do Not Support FontAwesome Icons

[jamesward]

In normal Mermaid you can add FontAwesome icons like:

graph TD
    foo(fa:fa-bug foo)

But that doesn't work with GitHub's Mermaid:

graph TD
    foo(fa:fa-bug foo)

Loading

It'd be great if FontAwesome Icon support was added.

Currently GitHub strips the FontAwesome stylesheet <link> element from my markdown files when rendering them, which, fair cop, but would be nice to have FA support baked in.

is there a solution yet?

I guess I can understand why they wouldn't want to include it, since importing all the icons (naive approach) is like 1 MB of payload. But it'd be really nice to have more options than what unicode emojis give us. For example, there's no really good emoji's for code-related things like "</>", "database", "bug", "i/o", etc.

It would be great if it did, the integration has to be complete!
