Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently :react takes an emoji character as argument but we want :react :smile: so the user wont' need to open the emoji keyboard and find the emoji.

Describe the solution you'd like
We already have a preprocessor for texts that applies this formatting i.e. replaces :emoji_name: with emoji with fuzzy search as well, we can simply pass the react argument through it like the :reply command. Alternatively, you can just implemment an inplace emoji replacement with similar logic and reject any non-emoji strings like hey how are you doing :emoji: whcih will be ignored by instagram anyways.

Describe alternatives you've considered
