Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:19.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/19.0 Iceweasel/19.0 Build ID: 20130220104629 Steps to reproduce: I entered this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=857913 The text included a UTF-8 character >U+FFFF; specifically, U+1F63B (a cat with heart-shaped eyes). Actual results: The report text was truncated at that character. Text beyond this character appears to be lost. Expected results: The database backend should either store this character correctly, or Bugzilla should refuse to submit the bug, or the character should be transliterated somehow. Silent data loss is NOT acceptable.
