I’m reporting a bug with the emoji picker in the mobile view.
Consider this scenario:
- You are using discourse on a small device. You are in a thread and want to write an answer.
- You are opening the emoji picker. It opens up as an overlay.
- When you are clicking the emoji you want to insert, and **below your clicking location, behind the emoji picker lies a clickable element** (link, button, whatever), the emoji is picked, but **the click event is bubbling up and clicking on the element**.
- This leads to opening up links, clicking buttons etc. - all without intention!
To prove this is an issue, I reproduced the exact issue here in this very forum (using another thread as example):
[https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/3/f/3f5f57bfd0bad84fed8d62c28a5c386a1ed75a2c.mp4](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/3/f/3f5f57bfd0bad84fed8d62c28a5c386a1ed75a2c.mp4)
(Notice there is a link behind the emoji I pick, and after clicking the emoji, the link is clicked and the url changes).
