Emoji escaping

[tmaslen]

Hello,

This is probably more a question than a reporting of an issue. I'm using twitter-text to escape non standard characters for use in a webpage. It works really well - thanks for making it - except with emojis. Should I expect twitter-text to work with emojis?

Here's an example of what I'm doing...

var text = "Jason Grigsby, ☁4"
console.log(twitter.htmlEscape(text));

I'm passing the escaped values through handlebars.js.

If html escaping isn't possible with emojis, are you able to tell me the best way to make sure emojis are presented properly?

Thanks,
/t
