I'm starting to see unicode characters/emoji being used in subject lines; how does one search for (a) a particular unicode character (b) a range of characters?

e.g. I have a mail with subject shown as:

              🚨 Stephen, big news from Runna! 🚨           

i.e. the first and last char of the subject are: 0x1F6A8 which I can normally enter using C-x 8 RET 1F6A8 RET

When I do a notmuch-search for that character, it doesn't find any matches.

Am I missing something?

Best wishes,

Stephen
