Comment:

 As much as I enjoy using emoji, I'm not sure that teaching about their
 input in a place people don't seem to look much is our priority. Emoji
 support is, as semi-jokingly put, the public-facing side of better Unicode
 support, but there is more to that support than smileys. We aren't trying
 to teach people about, say, the keyboard shortcut to access touchpad
 handwriting recognition for Chinese, which even I use (and my Chinese
 writing is terrible).

 A plugin to enable autocomplete+tokenized replacements could be a fun
 thing, can't remember if @pento's plugin does that already. Happy to help
 implement it there once we get into RC if you want.
