this is a bit overkill in my eyes. Why should thunderbird depend on the big package of firefox only to get a font? That's currently not the we should go. I believe it's better to live here if both packages ship this font within their packages as long some one is packaging emojione-colr. So I'd suggest to move this report over to a RFP for emojione-colr and keep the reports within firefox and thunderbird open with a blocks on the RFP bug report. But I wont have time to do such a packaging nor have I a real good knowledge about font packaging. OTOH emojione-colr hasn't changed internals for over a year now.
