I'd rather not see us loading images in instead of using scalable fonts; the visual result will be much poorer (either fuzzy oversized raster image, not scalable right sized raster image or memory hogging browser crashing svg).
Perhaps those who don't want to download this webfont could install the fonts-octicons package instead?
