I will often wrote :P and be extremely disappointed when it doesn't render as an emoticon. Supporting emoticons would be sorta neat.

I'm still not a super fan of how different browsers render different emojis, but it seems we could at least map the basic ones like @swisspol suggests.
{
':)' : 'smile',
':-)' : 'smile',
':(' : 'frowning',
':-(' : 'frowning',
';)' : 'wink',
';-)' : 'wink',
':\'(' : 'cry',
':\'-(': 'cry',
':-\'(': 'cry',
':p' : 'stuck_out_tongue',
':P' : 'stuck_out_tongue',
':-P' : 'stuck_out_tongue',
':O' : 'open_mouth',
':-O' : 'open_mouth',
':D' : 'smiley',
':-D' : 'smiley',
':|' : 'expressionless',
':-|' : 'expressionless',
':/' : 'confused',
";P" : 'stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye',
";-P" : 'stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye',
":$" : 'blush',
":-$" : 'blush'

Ooooh. Twitter's emoji are open source.

We now support emoji; we might support stickers at some point. If we did, I'd expect them to use the autocomplete element (which I think is in a relatively good place for emoji), not actually be invoked with :P, ^-^, etc.
