Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See
https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback
Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list.

Hi, I tried to hack a UI together to have simple marking of entries with
priorities and found that multi-byte priorities do not work.
To reproduce: Set priorities as
#+PRIORITIES: 🇩🇪 🇬🇧 🇩🇪
Then go on a headline and press S-up.
Expected: The lowest priority is selected: [#🇩🇪]
Actual: Only the first byte of the lowest priority is selected: [#🇩]
I understand full well that I am not using this as indended, but I think
nonetheless that this is a bug, because it would likely also break for
at least some Japanese letters.
Best wishes,
Arne

Try M-x describe-char on any of these emojis.
Org mode relies on `string-to-char' to extract the priority char and
(insert (string-to-char "🇩🇪")) ;=> 🇩
So, it is a problem with Emacs. You may report it with M-x report-emacs-bug

I am looking into this now, with a different set of system fonts, and it
is now clear what is going on.
🇩🇪 is actually not a single Unicode character, but 2 characters: 🇩 and
🇪. The reason they are rendered as emoji is likely font composition
rules.
Org mode priorities _must_ be a single char.
That said, it is indeed confusing when what _appears_ to be a single
char is not under the hood.
