I, too, would like to see the plugin updated to use the latest version of Font Awesome.
Also, as detailed here https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-this-and-the-menu-icons-plugin-loads-two-font-awesome-css-files/#post-9216446, I would love to see this plugin call Font Awesome using font-awesome rather than just fa.
Almost every other plugin & theme uses font-awesome, and the fact that this one uses fa means it’s very likely that two copies of Font Awesome get loaded on the site if additional code isn’t implemented (not ideal compatibility).
Also, the use of the basic fa name doesn’t guarantee other plugins, themes, etc. can dequeue fa as needed for overwriting the included font awesome library without worrying about dequeuing anything else that might be called fa.
I have also posted about this on GitHub here: https://github.com/kucrut/wp-icon-picker/issues/27
