Title: Emoji skin tones are rendered as missing characters Status in Canonical System Image: In Progress Status in messaging-app package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in ubuntu-keyboard package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu RTM: New Bug description: U+1F3FB through U+1F3FF are not rendered in the messaging app. Instead the "empty rectangle" missing-character symbol is rendered. These characters are the "EMOJI MODIFIER FITZPATRICK TYPE" characters. They are meant to indicate skin tone of the preceding emoji. I know that on the messaging app, all emoji are currently rendered as black and white. I assume that is a design choice. In the case we given specific color information, we either could render the color as requested or ignore it. But in neither case should we show the "missing-character" symbol.
