--- Comment #5 from László Németh <[email protected]> ---
Checking it on Windows 10 with a fresh LibreOffice profile using LibreOffice
5.0.2, I cannot reproduce the BMP-only problem. Emoji replacement works without
any problem. 

Check the followings to get a working emoji support on your operating system:

1. On Linux, you need to install Symbola font (or other fonts with emoji
support). On recent Windowses, Emoji support is default, on older Windowses,
it's possible to update for it (see MS document on "An update for the Segoe UI
symbol font in Windows 7 and in Windows Server 2008 R2 is available").

2. First check the BMP character replacements, eg. with :alpha: in an English
language documents. If you had problems, check the list in the AutoCorrect
dialog. If the (English language) replacement list don't contain the emoji
replacements, remove the copy of the old acor*dat from your profile (IMPORTANT
NOTE: don't delete it, if you don't want to lose your own custom
replacements.):

For example, moving the copy of the acor_en-US.dat to ~/tmp under Linux:

mv .config/libreoffice.orig/4/user/autocorr/acor_en-US.dat ~/tmp

After restarting LibreOffice, check the list in that dialog window, you will
see the replacements (using LibreOffice 5.0).

Recent Linux and Windows versions show also the Emoji characters in the dialog
window (they have extended Unicode UI fonts).

3. Try non-BMP character replacements. On Linux, in the case of using some
simple text fonts (for example, old Windows fonts or Liberation), you don't
need to set explicitly Symbola in the text to get non-BMP characters, otherwise
it needs to set Symbola in character formatting of the text. Also on Windows, I
didn't need to specify Segoe UI Emoji.
