Thanks.  However, the OP seems to imply that the Emoji symbols are
rendered incorrectly, or not displayed at all, when multicolor fonts
are used, not just that the colors are not shown.  If that is true (is
it?), I'd suggest to have in NEWS a workaround (use a different
font?), not just a statement of the fact that we don't support these
fonts.

Thanks.
