Note that emoji ≠ present in
http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/EmojiSources.txt

It would probably be useful to read through
http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr51/, which is where we are working on
various aspects of emoji, in your case especially

   - http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr51/#Identification
   - http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr51/#Presentation_Style

There are charts attached to the TR that can also be reviewed (and
commented on), such as
http://www.unicode.org/Public/emoji/1.0/text-style.html

If you have feedback on the data (either supporting what is there, or
recommending changes), you can submit your feedback via a link to Feedback
(found at the top, and in the review notes for each of the sections).


We haven't yet made firm recommendations on the variation selectors or the
default emoji style, so what is there is a fairly a raw draft. (but we are
making progress; see https://plus.google.com/+MarkDavis/posts/MLqEc79yN22).

Personally, I think that if a character is in the recommended list for
emoji, then:

   - if the default style is text, we must have variation selectors.
   - if the default style is emoji, then we should have variation selectors
   if it is in common use with a non-emoji presentation (typical for
   characters that have been in Unicode for a long time).
