XF 2.3 Node icons

[cjwinternet]

We're currently using in 2.2 extra.less this type of code to change the node icons...

.node.node--id115.node--forum.node--read .node-icon i:before {
    .m-faBase();
    .m-faContent("\f164");
}
.node.node--id115.node--forum.node--unread .node-icon i:before {
    .m-faBase();
    .m-faContent("\f164");
    font-weight: 900;

Which gives this result...


This isn't recognised by 2.3

I've tried the alternative suggested by @Jeremy P...

.node.node--id(node_id) .node-icon i:before {
    .m-faContent(@fa-var-download);
}

but it adds the fa icon but the SVG is still there...



I honestly think this is far too complicated and frankly I think it's poor that we're not offered a simple solution, or any solution.

So please, how to we fix this in 2.3??

I have edited my original post, I think Russ's approach should sort out the duplicate icon and sizing.
