Description
Steps to reproduce: add mention or emoji.
The cursor should be placed right after the inserted mention/emoji, but unfortunately it is placed far from it. I suspect it has to do with Quill not counting characters in the same manner composer does.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by adding a mention or emoji in the Quill-based composer and observe the resulting cursor position. Trace the insertion and cursor-placement path, then compare Quill's character indexing with the composer's indexing. Done means the cursor lands immediately after the inserted mention or emoji.
