Hi!
I am using the Emoji Picker on a daily basis and it is veeeery cool 😁😁😁
I have some feedback:

To me it would be more intuitive and better for the workflow to integrate the Emoji-Picker window as a dropdow in the systray in the Plasma Tray.
The current solution with a selfstanding x-window is somehow inconvenient will writing in any application.
Best solution I can think of:
1. Press Meta+. and the Dropdown in the Systray pops up.
2. Pick an emoji
3. After clicking on the Emoji automatically return to the working window to paste the emoji.

Just an idea/feedback....Best Benjamin.

Why is that more convenient?
The advantage of a window is that you can place it wherever you want, use the existing controls like "keep on top" and the like. I personally prefer that level of control.

IMO, It's a good idea. It can be used as a tool in the system tray

Of course it depends on your workflow. In my case: During a normal office day i have like 3 libreoffice windows, 3 firefox windows and a bunch of other windows opened. During writing I don't want to lose focus just for inserting any emoticons...That's why i came up with the systray idea...
