is possible to set icons from terraform file?

Problem Statement

The provider works well, but some additional things will make it even better

1) when apply, the vm template keep the "original_name" attribute and there is no indication what's the effect of the attribute "name" in the template definition, so it means that after deploying, you need to modify it manually inside the topology builder interface, which is time consuming. The description is reflected, so maybe this is something simple to fix

2) there is no a way to apply the icons inside the terraform file, which is something useful to minimize the manual changes at the topology builder gui

3) a way to position the devices in the topological view using a coordinate system, similar to the one already inplace at CML for instance

Until now I've been able to create a simpler and a more sofisticated topology using the provider, but I realized that when the topology goes beyond 10 nodes and several networks (typically when you try to recreate something similar to an enterprise topology), the customization after the terraform apply can be time consuming and prone to error, defeating the purpose of the IaC concept.

I'm pretty happy with the thing I can do with it as is, but this features will make usability even better for SE community.
