Hex entity ⏸ generates this message:
"⏸" is an invalid character reference. This may be because the '&' character was not escaped as "&". To use a literal ampersand it must be encoded as "&" (even in URLs) because '&' is an escape character in HTML/XHTML.
It is an unusual char, two vertical bars, part of the APL group. It is not a control char. It has no named entity. It is 16 bit. I can't see any reason it should be considered invalid.

Re: ⏸
Thanks. I've updated the Unicode code points CSE HTML Validator recognizes for the next update to fix this problem.

The only release notes are those here:

I realize it's not very specific. But the newly recognized Unicode references are part of the "other updates" and "user reported issues" that were addressed.
