Description
Type of proposal: enhancement
The non-ASCII ident code point specification doesn't include the Miscellaneous Symbols Unicode block, and the Dingbats Unicode block. However, the emoji of these blocks are allowed by browsers.
Note: should we also accept some of the emoji of the Miscellaneous Technical Unicode block? Or should we even accept all non-ASCII characters?
These codepoints (0+2600 to U+27BF included) could be added to the non-ASCII ident code point specification.

Research direction
Start with the linked CSS Syntax “non-ASCII ident code point” specification and compare its listed characters with the referenced Unicode blocks and browser behavior. Done requires resolving whether to add U+2600–U+27BF, address Miscellaneous Technical characters or all non-ASCII characters, and update the specification accordingly.
