Hi Devs,
To provide a better user experience I propose to use icons from Font
Awesome icon library [1]. At the moment Apache Bloodhound utilize the
limited set of icons provided by Bootstrap glyphicons. However Font Awesome
provide a wider range of icons that we can effectively utilize and make the
UI better.
Font Awesome library is licensed under MIT license [2]. Therefore I don't
think there are any legal barriers. And I hope it will be a cool UX
improvement for the next release of the project. Please share your view on
this.

Thanks,

Sounds good to me - obviously the normal things apply about ensuring
that we acknowledge in appropriate places (the NOTICE file I believe)
that this component is included and under which license. There may also
be changes required in the .rat-ignore file but we can work that out later.
Cheers,
Gary
