    Could we add that information to the PROBLEMS file?

    +* Some Unicode characters are not supported.

    +Emacs currently only supports the parts of the BMP whose codepoints
    +are in the ranges 0000-33ff and e000-ffff.

Mentioning this in PROBLEMS seems like a good idea to me, but a useful
entry needs to be stated in terms of what behavior the user sees.
This text doesn't explain the practical consequences; a user would say
"so what does that mean for me?"
