Doesnt seem possible. Any way around it? So many apps in store but none for stock. Was thinking of going away from handcent so I can use text in multi Window.

Unfortunately, it's just not possible. I use ChompSMS and it's the cleanest in terms of appearance from all of the other third party texting apps.

you could change to multiling keyboard

and download the emoji pack and English add on and swap with that. I've been using that and just quick switching to use emojis and then switching back to stock keyboard.
