If you're using UTF-8, this shouldn't be a problem - just use UTF-8
characters directly.
I just tried with
<?php echo $form->input('test', array('value' => '☃♠♣♥♦')); ?>
And it worked fine (that's `snowman`, `spades`, `clubs`, `hearts`,
`diamonds` in case the font you're using doesn't have them).
If you're not using UTF-8, then you should be!
