I am interested in this functionality, if it works with emojis.  Please
Nuno, do email me if this works with emojis, or do write an article
about it (it can be in the pt.* hierarchy).

The best thing I have so far, is using GNU Emacs' M-x describe-char for
knowing what an emoji means.  Which takes a lot of effort: setting the
point on the emoji, running that command, changing buffer, scrolling the
buffer down to read the description of the emoji, kill the current
buffer and get back to the previous buffer, and continue reading...  Too
much.
