    Eli> Can you describe here the current problems with VS-15?

CHAR+VS-15 and CHAR+VS-16 correctly choose text and emoji
representation, but CHAR+VS-15 results in the text representation only
if CHAR is not an emoji. If it is an emoji, the font selected for it
will always be the emoji font.

Iʼve tried forcing font_range to use the font for the 'symbol' script
for EMOJI+VS-15, instead, but that resulted in composition
failing. Maybe there are some more dragons lurking in the composition
rules.
