@monorail it's true! and would be nice. maybe the consortium thinks it's beyond the scope of unicode
@typhlosion @monorail There are already direction markers in unicode, I wonder if you could make those work with emoji like that? I guess that would kind of be an abuse of the RTL override, though, and would risk odd behavior in systems that don't expect that.
@typhlosion okay that makes sense
however, even if it can't be used to reduce redundancy, it'd be great to modify existing emojis in ways that aren't currently possible
