Prevent 'exo' and 'exp' from proposing emojis

[Biep]

When the strings 'exo' or 'exp' are typed into the message entry box, a collection of emojis is shown. Maybe there are other strings for which this is the case. This ought not to happen.

just XP does it as well https://matrix.to/#/!YTvKGNlinIzlkMTVRl:matrix.org/$MT9wqUhEcmJtx44YmDay1LEMwip9CrTs2aCHWNfNXUg?via=matrix.org&via=privacytools.io&via=chat.weho.st

*xo and *xp seem to always reproduce it where * is any set of characters

[Biep]

Including the empty set.

[turt2live]

The empty set is expected because it's a plaintext emoji.

[Biep]

But why have the * at all then? Typing 'xo' or 'xp' causes the problem, it seems.

[turt2live]

I'm not defending the * being a problem, just that XP and XO are emoji which people use. exp is obviously not an emoji, and clearly a bug

[Biep]

I'd much prefer having a single, settable, delimiter for emojis. If I don't type that (currently ":", but I'd prefer "#"), no emojis should be shown.

[t3chguy]

is for rooms though

[Biep]

True. Then maybe $, or another character that rarely shows up in (my) "normal" text.

This got fixed at some point, probably upstream
