I just spot checked Chrome (Mac and Android), Firefox, and Safari, and
all of them displayed emoji names in URI domain names as A-labels. If
you want to try it, I have a handy wildcarded link farm.
In all of my browsers, this one displays as three random Chinese
characters:
http://xn--google.web.sp.am/
This one is a lock emoji followed by "google" and displays as an A-label.
http://xn--google-hj64e.web.sp.am/
This one is two piles of poop, also displays as an A-label.
http://xn--ls8ha.web.sp.am/
If you want to try other stuff, http://<anything>.web.sp.am will return a
live harmless web page.
Also see this M3AAWG BCP from last year, based on what Google does,
but endorsed by and I believe implemented by other M3AAWG members:
