I’ve just noticed that the same thing happens in the “preview” pane of the composer. So it would seem that the javascript emoji ‘unescaper’ doesn’t recognise unicode emojis at all. (Titles & previews are parsed client-side, baked posts are parsed server-side… I think)

There’s even a comment about it in the source:
