Description

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Emojis make all sorts of text more human 💡 With Forms emojis allow the author to make their forms more fun, creative, and engaging 🌱 👌🏻 🕺🏻 🥳

Currently, emojis render correctly in all areas of Forms, but the author of a Form must copy and paste emojis manually from another source. This is time consuming and undesirable ☹️

Describe the solution you'd like

Incorporate a picker icon in form fields as seen here in Talk.

talk-emoji-picker

And also support the typing trigger :s... which autosuggests :smile 😄
