Hello! I was in a blank document with the Portuguese (pt_PT) language and typed: :lápis: I got a blank character. I changed the editing language to British and typed: :pencil: And a blank character I got.

The Unicode codepoint is being assigned--verify with an <alt>+x to toggle, but if font fallback does not occur you will have a blank glyph. Works correctly if you assign a font to the paragraph that includes a glyph for the emoji/symbol, e.g. Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Symbol, or Symbola
Thanks for the fast feedback, indeed I broke glyph fallback with the above. I'll take care.
