How should I update my patch? It's not clear to me if there is a
decision about how to change the wording of the Emoji prompts.
Also, I forgot to ask in my original message: Is there a plan to add an
Emoji input method to Emacs? If so, the input method could be used
during an isearch and this patch won't be necessary, right? Another
benefit of the input method is that it will work in other situations as
well, like in a query-replace.
