Description

Constellation provides the option to set a custom icon on a node. If the icon is not part of the default set that comes with Constellation though, it relies on the file path to retrieve the icon. This becomes a problem if you then share that graph with someone else as they then won't be able to see that icon and then they will need to set it themselves.

It would be helpful if any custom icons added are stored in the graph. That way you're able to share graphs with custom icons without then needing the receiver to manually add the icons themselves.
