The tags on scenarios are somewhat useful - playing with the color selectors makes them somewhat distinguishable, but one "A" looks pretty much like another, and they all run together.

How difficult would it be to make it possible to upload and attach Gravatar or LiveJournal style icons to scenarios, i.e. pixmaps with a minimum and maximum size (64x64? 128x128?), so that rather than the default "A" tag the icon would be viewable? Additionally, the icon would be viewable when editing and examining the scenario itself?

Also - and this probably a somewhat silly idea - it would be interesting if a scenario's icon could be made available via a web service (maybe using some variant of the WebhookAgent that accept's the scenario's name and returns the pixmap?) so that Slack, HipChat, or XMPP could pull the icon and use it as the account avatar for integrations (Slack does this already, in a round-about fashion).

This sounds like something that is manageable. Let me do some research.

Would it be feasible to expand the available icons for Scenarios by adding another font icon library like Fork Awesome (https://forkawesome.github.io/Fork-Awesome/)?

Does Fork Awesome include icons that are missing in Font Awesome? We did not enable a lot of the available icons because it slowed down the asset precompilation process. If we can find a way that does not impact the time too much we could enable all of them.

It does. It's a fork of Font Awesome (because that project has frozen out all PRs since October of 2016) that is still growing. It is my understanding that these are the ones that Font Awesome does not have:

Incidentally, this dovetails with a ticket I've not yet opened (but will reference this one).

I didn't know that it messed with asset precompilation, knowing just about nothing about that.
