Would you be able to narrow the problem down by (ideally) creating a JUnit test that demonstrates it? 
Or supply a minimal failure scenario that does not require running your complete app.

> I've noticed that when I have unicode special characters (e.g. emoji) in my sling content and the sling rewriter is enabled the characters are not output correctly to the browser. For example:
> {code}😁{code} becomes {code}��{code}
> If I disable the rewriter pipeline the output is as expected.
> I've looked in the code and I suspect the issue is in the HTMLSerializer from the Cocoon library, however I'm not sure why as it should be using the default encoding for output (which is UTF-8). My rewriter pipeline is using the default html-generator and html-serializer provided by sling.
> My code is available on GitHub here:
> https://github.com/Whistlepost/emojistrip
> It provides a very simple app/content project pair with some emoji characters in the content (see src/main/resources/SLING-INF/content/phrases.json). Many thanks.
