Public bug reported:

Impact
======
Some emoji in the emoji chooser show as black & white.

This is because these emoji default to "text presentation" instead of
"emoji presentation".

More information and a screenshot can be found in the pango issue linked
below.

Test Case
=========
In an app like gedit, right click in the text area and select Insert Emoji
Browse through the emoji list. All should be in full color.

Regression Potential
====================
The fix for this was pushed to the stable gtk-3-24 branch.

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/issues/334
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/commit/aac38198a3f5
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/commit/b74e3209a5af0

Other Info
==========
This adds an extra variation selector byte to each emoji added via the emoji 
chooser. (Many emoji are made up of multiple bytes.) This will not affect emoji 
added to GTK apps in other ways, such as copying and pasting from an app where 
the emoji doesn't have that variation selector added to it.

** Affects: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Low
