My motivations are not the point, The ability to specify fonts has been a preference feature of every browser I have ever used. So I'm sure that I'm not the only one experiencing broken awesomefonts all over the web. There may even be some font tweakers on this list. Dunno. Until the mozilla fixes their UI to accommodate these stupid icon fonts in conjunction with the font preference option, there is now a temporary fix - at least for Firefox. All I'm doing is sharing it. :)
