Feature request

The chat emote picker should be easier to scan and use when many emotes are available.

Requested behavior

Show emotes in a fixed grid with 6 icons per row
Display animated emotes
Group emotes by streamer/channel
Display a clear streamer/channel heading above each group
Show only the emote icons in the grid
Do not show emote names/captions under the icons
Avoid showing an internal scrollbar inside the emote picker
Keep the picker visually compact and predictable
Allow selecting multiple until closed

Details

Emote names should still be available internally for:

inserting the correct emote when clicked
searching/filtering emotes
tooltip/title text
accessibility labels

The visible picker grid should only show the emote image/icon buttons.

Expected layout

Streamer A
😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
😀 😀 😀

Streamer B
😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
😀 😀 😀 😀
