We mock up tweets, Instagram and Facebook posts daily for our newsroom and color emoji fonts simply don't work in AE.

We have to go find each individual emoji as a PNG, import it manually and sync it up with our text animation.

Having emoji support would be a big deal for us. And I'd argue it's necessary in today's social media obsessed world!

I agree with you.  Hopefully soon, but in the meantime, it might be worth creating an Essential Graphics for your emojis which might speed up the process a little.

I made a tutorial a while back for recreating text messaging and included emojis, although these days I might do it differently, but it still shows an approach that might help: https://youtu.be/N4sqUyL-iu8?t=928
