@mk @knuthollund icon fonts are evil, non-standardized and everything else bad in the universe. There's no reason anything should not support a 15+ year old character encoding standard.
If we send a font to the client we might as well just send one with all desired characters instead of using some arbitrary font that has nothing to do with the _actual_ characters written.

Remember they are just unicode characters and will be represented differently depending on the font.

@knuthollund I think such auto interpretation is evil. It'd have ro be per-user and preferrably only on the receiving end via javascript.

@knuthollund You've got the freedom to.make a plugin that does this. I'd hate you for it, but you're allowed to ;)

@mmn @mk @knuthollund And just think how horrible that would be in a federated environment with third party clients and... yeah. just no .)
