      1. Add the navigation and settings blocks to any page in boost.
      2. Tab to the tree in each block and press * on the numpad to expand all branches
      3. Observe the use of the FontAwesome icons in the nav tree (but not for activities).
      4. Switch to hebrew and verify the icons and spacing are still correct.

      In MDL-40759 FontAwesome was added as an icon system to be used by a theme if desired.  The title of the issue is 'Use the Font Awesome icon font for all icons in Moodle' however the AJAX processing of the response processed in /blocks/navigation/amd/src/ajax_response_header.js:

      {code}

      if (node.icon && (!isBranch || node.type === NODETYPE.ACTIVITY || node.type === NODETYPE.RESOURCE)) {
      li.addClass('item_with_icon');
      p.addClass('hasicon');

      icon = $('<img/>');
      icon.attr('alt', node.icon.alt);
      icon.attr('title', node.icon.title);
      icon.attr('src', M.util.image_url(node.icon.pix, node.icon.component));
      $.each(node.icon.classes, function(index, className) {
      icon.addClass(className);
      });
      }

      {code}

      ignores this and injects an image directly rather than implementing the intent of the theme configuration setting: $THEME->iconsystem = \core\output\icon_system::FONTAWESOME;

      Therefore 'Use the Font Awesome icon font for all icons in Moodle' is false and incomplete.
