If there was room for it, a button with a smiley face or similar would
be much more findable than our current globe icon.

Making it separate from keyboard layouts isn't the only way of doing
that, though. Whenever you have exactly two keyboards and one of them is
Emoji, iOS labels the button as “😃”/“ABC” instead of the usual globe
icon.

Windows Phone, on the other hand, demonstrates the solution Matthew is
proposing. An emoji button is part of every keyboard layout in its
standard mode, next to the layout switcher button. (The layout switcher
button is therefore present less often, since most people use just one
layout.) In Web address and e-mail address modes, the same space is
taken up by the .com/etc domain-completion button.

I reported bug 1539554 about the excessive scrolling.
