Icon request, space

[teckel12]

When using CSS to manipulate an existing FA font, one can't use the content attribute to change/edit the content to include a space. For example, lets say you want to do the following content: " \f101" (notice there's a space before the \f101). That doesn't work. If FA included a space, one could do something like this: content: "\f255\f101" (with 255 being a space, but whatever the number would actually be).

There's a work-around, to use the character '\A0'. However, that's not well known. It could be as simple as using '\A0' with FA instead of adding a new icon. But, that would be up to the FA team. I've run into this problem many times and finally figured found out about the '\A0' trick, but why make it a trick? Just give people a space icon (how hard could that really be?)
