+          indicate that an icon may be supercomposed with a mask, by adding the
+          <a data-lt="masking purpose">masking</a> purpose. This allows the
+          platform to ensure that the icon looks well integrated with the
+          platform, and even apply different masks and background colors in
+          different places throughout the platform.

+          Any icon indicating that it can be supercomposed with a mask, much

I am afraid that if we don't add this here, then some vendors will do their own thing and we will end up with a mess
