Is there a way to disable FontAwesome automatic icon conversion to SVG?

[scottyhq]

I was trying to figure out why fontawesome icons in mermaid diagrams are looking different in on https://mermaid.live/ compared to a site rendered with this theme and sphinxcontrib-mermaid

I've pinned it down to this line:

pydata-sphinx-theme/webpack.config.js

Lines 75 to 77 in 3e74810

	{% macro head_js_preload() %}
	<!-- So that users can add custom icons -->
	${fa_scripts.map(deferScript.bind(compilation)).join("\n")}

Which adds <script src="../_static/scripts/fontawesome.js?digest=8878045cc6db502f8baf"></script> to the page. If I remove that from the HTML, it's just ordinary icons and renders well. I spent a bit of time trying various CSS to change the SVG icons to white, but couldn't figure it out :(

The icons are getting converted to SVG with path fill="currentColor" and I can't figure out how to change that to match text in the diagram, I'd prefer to simply disable this conversion to match appearance on https://mermaid.live

Can you give the URL of a page where this is happening, and ideally also a link to the repo from which that page is generated?

PR preview is here https://xray--10324.org.readthedocs.build/en/10324/get-help/help-diagram.html! Although in the meantime, I realized the SVGs fill="currentColor" maps to the mermaid theme "primaryColor" so we are now using that as a workaround (:config: {"theme":"base","themeVariables":"primaryColor":"#fff”}).

Still could be nice to be able to toggle the SVG icon conversion.
