Unicode is OK (flawed but OK), emoji in Unicode suck. The worst part is Unicode breaking existing documents by retroactively converting some common symbols emoji-default, despite supposed stability guarantees. The second worst part is the emoji combining sequences becoming an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Common Lisp. |

That was the main reason for me to pull in harfbuzz. At least it "just resolves" those sequences to glyph indices.
