Yes, yes, and yes (IOW, I put the surrogate in the middle).

Only one, and it produced three boxes - probably one for each UTF-8 byte
that pango considered invalid.

Again, only one. Apparently, PyQt passes the Python Unicode string to Qt
in a character-by-character representation, rather than going through UTF-8.
