For many use cases, UTF-8 SMP characters (like emoji) pass thru properly: see 
below for an example.

So in general, no, but there appear to be some issues with some Windows 
interfaces handling SMP codes UTF-16 surrogate pairs converted from UTF-8.

It is more useful if you provide a Simple Test Case that demonstrates your 
issue, and allows it to be reproduced, diagnosed, and/or explained.
