Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. On Windows 7, visit https://tests.peter.sh/notification-generator/#body=Rocket Emoji

2. In the textbox containing "Rocket Emoji", copy and add this Rocket emoji character to the textbox: 🚀

3. Click "Display Notification" at the bottom.

4. You should see a notification similar to https://imgur.com/a/cKoZW, where the rocket emoji isn't rendered.

What is the expected behavior?
The rocket emoji should be displayed, since it was added to Unicode 6 back in 2010.

What went wrong?
It looks like the notification font on Windows 7 is Segoe UI, which does not display Unicode 6 emojis.

Does it occur on multiple sites: N/A

Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? N/A

Chrome version: 56.0.2924.87  Channel: stable

If the default system font used to render notifications on Windows 7 is Segoe UI, would it be possible to switch to Segoe UI Symbol?

1. Segoe UI Symbol ASCII characters look identical to Segoe UI

2. Segoe UI Symbol supports most (although not all) Unicode 6 emojis, whereas Segoe UI only supports Unicode 1.1-3.2 emojis (a very limited set)

(from Wikipedia):
> An update for the Segoe UI Symbol font in Windows 7 and in Windows Server 2008 R2 brings a subset of the monochrome Unicode set. Segoe UI lacks any and all Emoji characters, while Segoe UI Symbol and Segoe UI Emoji include them.

I ran a test to confirm that a user regularly installing updates on Windows 7 would receive the updated Segoe UI Symbol emoji supporting Unicode 6 characters.

I didn't find the article to be true that Segoe UI lacks any and all emoji characters. On WordPad, Unicode 1.1 - 3.2 emojis display using Segoe UI. Unicoide 6 emojis do not display on Segoe UI though.

3. Windows 7 is still used by a large majority of users

   We see 32% of users still using Windows 7 (for 65 million users on a page directly prompting them to subscribe to notifications, over 7 months), and netmarketshare.com reports it at 47%. The next highest OS we see is Windows 10 at 17.5% and then Android 6/6.01 at 12.5%.
