Description Harald Sitter 2020-04-06 12:48:12 UTC

SUMMARY
when typing on any page the picker should do a search (ideally filter the page one is on, but I expect that's a headache)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open picker
2. type cat

OBSERVED RESULT
nothing happens

EXPECTED RESULT
cat emojis show up

more generally: no matter the page, on keyboard input that isn't navigation -> jump to search -> search for keyboard input

the motivation here is that if I know what I am looking for I'd want to get to it without having to use the mouse seeing as I needed the keyboard already to trigger the picker anyway and likely in a way that had me remove my hand from the mouse.

[Emoji panel] search when the user begins typing

Right now you need to hit Ctrl + F to start searching. This patch
additionally makes the
search start as soon as you start typing.

It's a bit slow though, not sure why?
