Comment:

 Thanks @strarsis.

 In this case I'm still going to close this as `invalid` though.
 My reasoning is:
  - WordPress doesn't supply the emoji's, we use a 3rd party script which
 does the transfomations - We allow changing the CDN those images are
 pulled from though.
  - Emoji's are only replaced with images when the browser doesn't natively
 support it
  - If you want to recolour emoji's for the theme, that's not really
 supported by emojis at present (in general, not just in WordPress).
  - The best way to achieve this would be a content filter to replace the
 Telephone emoji with your image as a transformation before the page is
 rendered (instead of afterwards)
