[90-M3] Motion: Add to the text of Unicode 3.2, the following guidelines for the handling of variation selectors: [L2/01-478, L2/02-002]
1) If a variation selector sequence is not available, the variation selector should be ignored.
2) The standardization or support of a particular variation selector does not limit the set of glyphs that can be used to represent the character alone.
3) If you want to have distinction between a character and a character plus a variation selector, you must have a font available that supports that distinction.
