  1. In a chat room issue an emote example: /me foo bar
  2. Right click, no option to edit
  3. now open element, right click and edit the emote
  4. Check the results in commet and other clients.

Expected behavior
The presence of a means to edit emotes, and edited emotes getting updated appropriately to show the new content.
