Pasting "soft ice cream" emoji at end of tweet string causes character counter to jump to zero #3

Problem: Pasting the "soft ice cream" emoji at the end of the tweet text causes the character count to drop to zero, preventing the tweet from being sent.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Select the tweet entry field, enter some text, e.g. "hello"
  2. Copy the Unicode "soft ice cream" emoji onto the clipboard: "🍦 " (I did this by going to http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/1f366/index.htm in Firefox, scrolling to "string.toUpperCase", double clicking the text, then pressing ctrl-C).
  3. Paste into the tweet entry field.
  4. Note that the character count is now zero instead of the expected count of one more than its previous value.
