Emote in-line with visible

I think, just like with cloak concealment, that it would be beneficial if people could pop out of sneak/hide with visible and have the emote post like so. Currently, it provides an echo, but I see little reason it couldn't be, for instance... (where X is the character name)
EDIT: The thing which made me think about this is, typically if I'm popping out of visible it's because I want to RP to the room. It's very awkward to visible, then have people able to react to my presence prior to the emote, so I have typically written the emotes in advance and done the copypaste dance, while I feel like it could be streamlined like with cloaks.
or, if people decide to /self in the middle,visible pops out of the shadows and says, "Boo!"
X pops out of the shadows and says, "Boo!" [Visible]
while defaulting to the current system echo if they choose not to RP out the emote.visible Popping out of the shadows, /self says, "Boo!"
Popping out of the shadows, X says, "Boo!" [X] [Visible]
