There are really three choices: 1) Don't encode it at all and rely on higher-level protocols to display it. (After all, it's only used in specialized contexts and does not have a distinct meaning or pronunciation from the regular 福.)
2) Use a registered ideographic variation sequence to support it. (This is really a variation of #1.) 3) Add it to UTR #45 and submit it to the IRG for inclusion in Extension F. My own feeling is that either #1 or #2 would be best, given its specialized nature.
