The thrill some people get from sending clip art in plain text doesn't 
seem likely to fade away any time soon.

This is true of any /de facto/ pictographic writing system, which 
excludes emoji.  FAICT there aren't any Han enthusiasts being employed 
to "think up new ones" in the hope that they'll catch on. Emoji 
proponents might be the most likely to bother to run any kind of 
character frequency analysis.  If such analyses disagree with their 
usage projections, IMO emoji proponents would be least likely to publish 
those results.

Getting back to the subject thread, if Tengwar had been on the "Not the 
Roadmap" page and a more robust proposal had been submitted (along with 
the passage of time and a shifting of attitudes), would it be necessary 
for the proposer to make a separate request for Tengwar to be removed 
from the "Not..." page -- or would the Consortium remove it from that 
page as a matter of course upon considering the newer proposal?
