Oliver Lietz commented on SLING-5973:
-------------------------------------
bq. escaping in form {{&\#x2602;}} is HTML specific and not compatible with the
JSON spec.
[[email protected]], the HTML entities are just strings in JSON also. Why
should they not be compatible? I think it's absolutely fine to put HTML in JSON
strings (as long following the simple escape rules from RFC 4627 2.5).

2.5. Strings
The representation of strings is similar to conventions used in the C
family of programming languages. A string begins and ends with
quotation marks. All Unicode characters may be placed within the
quotation marks except for the characters that must be escaped:
quotation mark, reverse solidus, and the control characters (U+0000
through U+001F).

> HTMLSerializer not handling some unicode characters (emoji, etc.)

> Key: SLING-5973
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5973
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Extensions
> Reporter: Ben Fortuna

>
> I've noticed that when I have unicode special characters (e.g. emoji) in my
> sling content and the sling rewriter is enabled the characters are not output
> correctly to the browser. For example:
> {code}😁{code} becomes {code}��{code}
> If I disable the rewriter pipeline the output is as expected.
> I've looked in the code and I suspect the issue is in the HTMLSerializer from
> the Cocoon library, however I'm not sure why as it should be using the
> default encoding for output (which is UTF-8). My rewriter pipeline is using
> the default html-generator and html-serializer provided by sling.
> My code is available on GitHub here:
> https://github.com/Whistlepost/emojistrip
> It provides a very simple app/content project pair with some emoji characters
> in the content (see src/main/resources/SLING-INF/content/phrases.json). Many
> thanks.
