Doesn't it seem like a bad trade-off to improve rendering of smileys at
the cost of rendering PDF:s worse? I rarely if ever use doc-view, but
testing it now seems to produce less than stellar results (i.e. the text
is barely readable).

Is there a way to convert from XPM automatically, or are you saying you
volunteer to make the SVG:s?
Another option would perhaps be to just replace the XPM:s we have with
some set of emojis licensed under Creative Commons. The first one I
found when searching online was this one:
https://openmoji.org/
https://github.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/blob/master/FAQ.md
Its license is Creative Commons Share Alike License 4.0 (CC BY-SA 4.0).
That is okay for distributing with Emacs, I think?
Or we could use some other set, I don't exactly care which one it is.
If there is more than one candidate perhaps we could distribute more
than one and add an option to choose between them.
