Feature request: Import script from text frame instead of file #1

Please consider adding the possibility of loading the comic Script from a text frame already present in the page while keeping all formatting and styles.

Often, American comics (and others) will use bold or italics in some words, occasionally even different text sizes or other formatting. Plenty of times, the text will therefore be provided in a rich text document format (like MS Word) and cleaned up in InDesign before distributing it in frames. It'd be nice if Letterer Budy could use the cleaned up version as the source Script.

Could you give me a sample of how this would look like so I can look into implementing it?

EDIT: I can see what you're looking for now. I'll see if it's possible.
