Yes, I think it would make sense for commands like this to treat these
grapheme clusters like a single object.  (It might not make sense for
other grapheme clusters, though?)

I just checked what Macos does -- I opened the Notepad app and found the
emoji input method (after googling; it's on control-command-space).  I
inserted one of the grapheme cluster ones, and DEL deleted the entire
thing.
