Any recommended workarounds for using emojis (I need country flags, nothing else) without loading a 10MB+ font?
(Compose uses system fonts on other platforms but on web I have not seen a clear answer if this is planned or not)

perhaps you can avoid loading a font by using Local Font API (experimental and Chrome only for now):

Thanks for the addition. The first version is performance wise my recommendation, because the second requires XML parsing.
