I mean, why can't you just add another 4000? Search in emoji list works well enough.

ime those phone keyboard search features are in dire need for some semantic search feature. When my mind happens to search with a synonym that is not included in the underlying description of the emoji, I fail to find what I'm looking for.

Edit: hmmm it seems actually to be more of a problem with the symbols that are constructed by combining two emojis with a zerowidth char. Like the heart on fire one.

Both "heart" and "fire" match that emoji for me on multiple IMEs (GBoard, IBus).
