It's very common for map-type icons to be rendered with a slash / to negate the meaning, often to signify something is not allowed or not available. Pinhead should support this use case. Conceivably any icon could be used this way.
Instead of hand-editing every icon to add a slash, this should be part of the JS API. Potentially pre-rendered variants could be included in the web distribution. In any case this would require us to encode the visual orientation of certain icons, since a slash at 45 degrees would directly obscure a thin icon also set at 45 degrees. In these cases either the slash or the icon could be flipped horizontally.
