Feature Evaluation: WYSIWYG for basic functions #1740

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Overall editing MD files as text is my preferred way of working with notes in Nextcloud, however the one challenge is bullets and check boxes. This is because typing brackets with spaces takes a long time when initiating, you have to switch between edit and view mode to quickly check/uncheck, and it's just.. ugly to look at if you're always in edit mode.

Describe the solution you'd like

A basic WYSIWYG interface for common tools (bullets and checks to start, perhaps code, bold, italics, and indents if it tests well).

Describe alternatives you've considered

N/a, but related to https://github.com/nextcloud/notes-android/issues/1739. As noted there, I am the creator of OwnNote from a long ways back, so I have some expertise I can apply here.

Additional context

I am willing to contribute if this feature is acceptable.

I assume this can be closed due to the new rich edit mode introduced in Notes Android 4.0.0 (this feature requires Nextcloud 26 AFAIK). Otherwise referencing to https://github.com/nextcloud/notes-android/blob/main/FAQ.md#why-arent-there-any-buttons-to-apply-formatting
