On GitHub, Slack, or whatever, you can easily input emoji on the comment field as you type a colon (:). Bugzilla should also support this shortcut. https://www.webpagefx.com/tools/emoji-cheat-sheet/
Severity: normal → enhancement
GitHub's current emoji list is here: https://github.com/github/gemoji/blob/master/db/emoji.json

Does it really block that? I was going to add this to the markdown renderer because that's how github does it.

This is a frontend enhancement. On GitHub or Slack, you’ll see a list of emoji when you type semicolon (:) and can input directly, not a server-side conversion. We should do the same.

It's both. Github appears to store the non-emoji form, so we can do the same. I'll also add an API for completing the emojis.
