Is changing COMBINING_CHARS to be enabled by default (at least for zsh

Just conversationally -- and not to demean anyone else's aspirations for zsh -- it seems to me that shells are text based interfaces to the OS and that it's wrong headed to expect them to have very much of anything to do with cute emojis.  Or maybe that's wrong.  I know nothing about grapheme-clustering -- I don't even know that that means -- but it sure smells like a can of worms -- the sort of thing that will never be cleanly  finished and that might even cause blowups of established functionality.  Just my two cents.
