IME/Emojis

Either Ctrl+Shift+E opens the emoji selection dialog directly or Ctrl+Shift+E followed by space. The relevant application's path is /usr/libexec/ibus-ui-emojier and it is contained in package ibus in Debian.

IBus Emojier

The shortcut can be changed in "IBus Preferences", tab page "Emoji".
