decode(encode(vec![0u8, 223u8, 124u8])) returns None.

While services often use grapheme count for character limits, the better analog for number of visual elements is grapheme clusters.

An encoding that takes advantage of zero-width joiner (ZWG) to encode grapheme clusters made of multiple graphemes (e.g. gender, skin tone modifiers) should improve the visual density of encoded information. As a bonus, this will also increase the diversity of generated emojis.

Reference

In addition to the library, I'd also like to add a command line application that can encode and decode values/files.
