Title:
  [4 new] Expansion: Musical notes (U+2669–U+266C)

Status in fonts-ubuntu package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In movie/TV subtitles, the characters U+266A (♪) or U+266B (♫) are
  often used as shorthand to indicate that a character is singing. This
  notation is equally common in subtitle files downloaded from the
  Internet as well. In addition, a musical note glyph is available in
  both the ATSC and DVB captioning standards for TV; depending on the
  device used, it may be rendered either as U+266A or U+266B, though I
  believe the official documentation for both uses the glyph form of
  U+266A.

  Given that the Ubuntu Font Family will be the default font used to
  render subtitles in many movie players under Ubuntu, I think these
  characters ought to be added to it.
