Comment (by xavierserranoa):

 not sure if I'm allow to post here or this but on the mention by @azaozz
 of maybe creating a plugin or something i have in the past week working on
 something myself just need to sort out a few things but it i have it on a
 very workable and usable state. i just need to make <i> tags with :before
 content icons behave as if they where a regular letter/character.
