Most of this is pretty useful for reproducing a wide gamut of human language. It gets completely fucked when it comes to fonts with png's embedded in svg's and other INSANE matryoshka doll nesting of bitmap/vector rendering technologies. I also half hate emoji as it pollutes human writable text with bitmaps that are difficult to reproduce by hand on paper with a writing instrument - it's not text. I say half hate as it allows us a standard set of icons to use that can be easily rendered in-line with text or on their own.
