The emoji-picker is a specific piece of code as it has very strong performance requirements which are almost not found anywhere else in the app, as a result it was using various hacks to make it work decently even on old browsers.
Following our drop of Internet Explorer, and various new features in Ember and recent browsers we can now take advantage of this to reduce the amount of code needed, this rewrite most importantly does the following:
- use loading="lazy" preventing the full list of emojis to be loaded on opening
- uses InterserctionObserver to find the active section
- limits the use of native event listentes only for hover/click emojis (for performance reason we track click on the whole emoji area and delegate events), everything else is using ember events
- uses popper to position the emoji picker
- no jquery code
This reverts commit 20780a1eee.
* SECURITY: re-adds accidentally reverted commit:
03d26cd6: ensure embed_url contains valid http(s) uri
* when the merge commit e62a85cf was reverted, git chose the 2660c2e2 parent to land on
instead of the 03d26cd6 parent (which contains security fixes)
This set of tests cleared the emoji store *before* each test, while the other set - *after*. So if these were run first, they would break a single test from the other set.
