 > Every time `wp_print_scripts/styles()` runs, we are going to run this
 JS? This feels strange.

 Nice catch. :-) [attachment:31701.3.diff] adds a static flag to the
 functions, so they're only ever printed once.

 > I'm all for smilies, but are they really this important?

 Not just smilies, they're //emoji//.

 > What if I never want this code to run, do I have to add a filter every
 time I fire up a WordPress project?

 Yep.

 > This code makes sense for WordPress.com and Jetpack, I get it, but this
 seems weird to me as base product code.

 This goes back to some of the [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/02/13
 /emoji-chat-meeting-notes-february-12-2015/ original discussion] of emoji.
 The issue now is how to provide consistent emoji support for everyone.
