When writing the code for an emoji in the message field, Signal should provide suggestions for existing emoji codes.
Example:
:sunglasses: for emoji with sun glasses on
When writing :sun Signal should open e.g. a drop down to show possible emojis containing this code.
For implemented example see Slack
Here is the UI of Slack for this feature (I came here to suggest the same thing today) for reference.

This is a duplicate of #197
@tribut Nice find. Sadly that's not even included in the backlog. Hopefully the Signal team will see the interest here and reconsider adding it to the backlog?
It's already implemented in Signal Desktop v1.26.2
