Editor cleans Solution?

I am trying to use tags so I can use a script that incorporates fontawesome. The problem is that your editor is cleaning out the tag. From what i've been able to research a CKEDITOR.dtd.$removeEmpty.i = 0; being added to the js config may fix this. Or perhaps another editor wouldn't make this clean.

In unformatted all of that must be done in html. It may have to do in this instance to gain some more friendly UI for the front of the site. It would be actually much easier to have a more usable editor.

It is causing more dysfunction than being helpful and much of our content has been suffering as a result.

Is there a way or method perhaps to make exceptions in the editor to allow certain classes or be able to
