The immediate purpose of _ficonic_ is to enable download of all icons provided for identifying a site at a given URL. This allows the user to select the icon best suited for the medium through which they intend to identify the site. The longer term goal is to provide a library for loading data for all of the aforementioned icons into a C++ application for manipulation and/or use as needed.
