Emacs already has support for displaying images inline, and there exists Emacs packages for replacing certain Unicode characters with images automatically (thus emulating support for Emoji fonts). From there, it doesn't seem much of a stretch to discuss direct support for Emoji fonts in Emacs.

In my case, they would make status flags in mu4e much more readable. But of course I can use inline images for the same purpose.
