Clear Frequently Used Emojis

(#3600) Feature Under consideration accessibility emoji ui

Current problem

It is currently impossible to clear emojis under the Frequently Used category, which can be found inside of the Emoji Picker menu.
Why is this a problem?
While this certainly isn't anything major, the problem is that this category becomes very cluttered, very quickly. With every new emoji you interact with getting placed into the category, and with currently no easily accessible way of clearing this category out.
Who does this affect?
The majority of users definitely won't view this as particularly problematic. However, Certain users, myself included, would really benefit from a simple QOL feature that could enable users to easily and accessibly clear this category of all or currently selected emojis. ---

Proposed change

Currently when inside of the Emoji Picker, RMB on any emoji will quickly bring up a tiny popup menu with the following actions (screenshot available below for demonstration):
  • Favorite emoji
  • Copy emoji URL
  • Open emoji in browser
  • Reverse image search
As you can see, this popup menu is already really convenient. So, my proposal is very simple.
What can we do?
Introduce a new action titled, for example, "Clear selected", somewhere inside of this popup menu that simply clears the currently selected emoji from this category. Furthermore, if the user has decided that they'd like to clear out the whole category instead, introduce a similar action somewhere inside of the Emoji Picker that could enable them to do so. --- Thank you. -Forindex
