Understood.

No.  I just wanted to be sure that it is not trivial to change.

Closing the issue now.  Thank you for your time!

Dear maintainers,

I have encountered a bug where grapheme clusters are not rendered
properly when used inside of a folded heading in Org.

Steps to reproduce with 'emacs -Q':

1. Evaluate:

      (setq org-pretty-entties t
            org-ellipsis " ☀️")

2. Either visit an existing Org file or use the attached sample.

3. Fold a heading in Org by pressing TAB with point somewhere on the
   heading.

4. Notice the incorrectly rendered sun emoji at the end of the folded
   heading.

If I change 'org-ellipsis' to a single character emoji, such as the
generic smile, the problem no longer occurs:

* Evaluate:

      (setq org-ellipsis " 😀")

* Then in the Org file do 'M-x org-mode-restart'.

The smile emoji renders properly at the end of the folded heading's
line.

The attached screenshots show the different results.

All the best,
Protesilaos (or simply "Prot")
