Description
There is something I'm missing from my favourite text editor I used in the past: the ability to move a selection or paragraph up and down with a shortcut. It made editing documents, restructuring text a breeze.
The shortcut key would affect the paragraph currently containing the cursor, or the current selection if there was one.
I would love to see this added to Simplenote.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; begin by locating the macOS editor's keyboard-command handling and selection or paragraph logic. Confirm how the cursor-containing paragraph and current selection are identified, then verify that a shortcut moves the affected text up or down without changing unrelated text.
