> 
>   (add-hook #'post-command-hook

> 	      (run-with-idle-timer 0.02 nil
> 				   (lambda ()

> 					 ((glyph (get-text-property (point)
> 								    'emoji-glyph))
> 					  (name (emoji--name glyph)))
> 				       (message "%s" name)))))
> 	    nil 'local)

> We could have this as an optional feature, or we could leave this

No further comments, so I'm now closing this bug.
