 In my plugin I am using wp.createElement in the front-end and using
 `wp_enqueue_scripts( 'wp-element' )` to load it. If emojis are disabled,
 the error "uncaught reference error, variable wp not defined" happens when
 trying to access wp.createElement.

 I could be wrong, but I think the problem is that if emojis are disabled,
 this line, which sets up the `wp` variable does not run.
