User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/73.0.3683.103 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

Typing notes.

Actual results:

Only plaintext supported

Expected results:

An HTML/Markdown editor to allow for styling text. Outlook has this and the lack of this feature in Tbird is the one feature preventing my clients from switching.

Any type of rich text editor would be acceptable. It would seem that the one already used for email messages could be used here, too--theoretically making this simpler to implement.
