A common scenario where using system fonts for PUA codepoints as a fallback leads to undesired results is indeed an icon font (e.g. [Typicons at U+E000..F1FF](http://s-ings.com/typicons/)), being unavailable but using partially the same codes as the system emoji font does for pre-Unicode compatibility (e.g. Apple Color Emoji for SoftBank [ca. U+E000..E4FF](http://unicode.org/~scherer/emoji4unicode/snapshot/full.html)), although mostly icon fonts use U+F*xyz* and legacy emojis U+E*xyz* (or even U+FE*xyz*). There are other fields that have coordinated PUA usage across fonts: constructed scripts (esp. [CSUR](http://www.evertype.com/standards/csur/)) and historic scripts (e.g. [MUFI](http://folk.uib.no/hnooh/mufi/)). I'm just pointing this out to make sure nobody thinks it would be okay to limit lookup of PUA characters to the first font in the stack. -- GitHub Notification of comment by Crissov Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2110#issuecomment-352742981 using your GitHub account
