Unicode 9.0 has added (at last) some actually useful symbols, besides the emoji fluff. The ISO/IEC/IEEE power symbols (standby, on, off, etc.), which are pretty useful in e.g. technical documentation and manuals (fitting Fira’s use cases, I’d say), were proposed and added to the “Miscellaneous Technical” block at the following code points:

POWER SYMBOL         U+23FB  ⏻
POWER ON-OFF SYMBOL  U+23FC  ⏼
POWER ON SYMBOL      U+23FD  ⏽
HEAVY CIRCLE         U+2B58  ⭘
POWER SLEEP SYMBOL   U+23FE  ⏾

Good idea. We’ll include them in the next update.

I can see this is fixed in the new FiraGO. Thanks a lot!!
