I would like to use an alternative emoji font such as twemoji-colr ( https://github.com/mozilla/twemoji-colr )

This would be so great to have! The font I use normally has both a normal version and monospaced version. Using that in Terminal breaks things as Terminal uses the normal version. With the ability to specify a family like in VS Code, I could force the monospaced version instead.

IDWriteFontFallbackBuilder should do this job well.

You might want to do what you are allowed to do in the setting for conemu, specify a second font and allow it to be used for a specific range.
