Any idea how to implement emoji shortcut panel in Xfce?

However, this thing is gtk-specific. The most efficient workaround is to use another custom emoji picker, such as Emote or Rofi-emoji (I use this)

I'm trying to write a fuzzy-finder prompt for inserting emojis into arbitrary applications (like https://github.com/Mange/rofi-emoji, but I want it to just type in the emoji rather than copying it to the clipboard).

For these other emoji characters, one would typically need to turn to a helper application like the KDE Emoji Picker, the Gnome Emoji Selector, or a web browser with Emojipedia. There are also extensions for the rofi utility (rofi-emoji and rofimoji) which allow a lightweight solution for those not in full desktop environments.
