That is quite clearly broken, and any tool that does so should be fixed or dumped. This is not new, and Marcus Kuhn had made UTF8 test resources available for years at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html
I believe that MySQL is one such tool. In recent versions you can work around it by asking for the encoding "utf8mb4" instead of "utf8", but I think they have to be quite recent.
So yes, another way in which MySQL is quite clearly broken.
