Oh...I think that question is already answered by another emoji which -
unlike 1F4A9  - is actually fitz-optional[1].

FYI, Posting this on behalf of Mark Davis... Something in his original 
reply message is apparently toxic to our mail gateway that it can't get 
through. (Investigating.)


May be the literal U+1F4A9, which I have (I'm sorry) redacted below.

This draft document also includes a section on Diversity, with a

tones for existing emoji characters.

tr51 table 2-2

The document is in “Proposed Draft” state, and made available for public

I forwarded this on, and the only response I got was a question 
regarding if the Fitzpatrick modifiers applied to U+1F4A9?  I answered 
that they only apply to specified emoji.  But I wonder if the question 
was in fact a commentary on what they think of the proposal.
