This depends on:

I have added those as our dependencies; it's unlikely that a release containing those will happen very soon.

Xilem Emoji Picker.

Some notes:

  1. The accessibility of this example probably isn't great. Not sure what to do about this.
  2. Our layout primitives aren't great; I've hacked around a grid layout, but we really need to make a Grid widget/View
  3. The pagination is slightly hacked together - it should really try and give you page numbers. I'm not planning to address this, unless someone provides the algorithm
  4. Emoji only render on systems with a system COLR Emoji font. I know my Android device does, but I don't know if any other systems do? Maybe Windows and some Linux systems? This blocks this PR

I tested this, and the fonts are not visible on Mac OS. Maybe the font isn't COLR format.

Indeed. This is called out in linebender/linebender.github.io#56, for example.

Moving this into draft due to the lack of bitmap emoji support.

This should start working properly once we have Vello 0.3 and Parley 0.2. See #616

The biggest remaining issue in this PR is that IME support is not
present.

However, I think landing this is *better* than not landing it, because:
1) If we don't land it, it's going to languish again
2) Getting IME support back can be parallelised (cc @tomcur)
3) Getting Vello 0.3.0 and Parley 0.2.0 unlocks real advantages,
including full emoji support (#420).

To be clear, my first follow-up priority will be connecting the IME back
up. I do not however think this should block on Parley 0.3.0.
