Description
Not all of these should be or need to be met, but I figure it may be helpful to see them listed here. Anything struck through is not currently being planned.
- ability to specify spaces/tabs, indent size, and line wrapping behavior
- embeddable files
-
post editing(you can make a copy, and I'm open to being able to edit descriptions so you can add a link) - revision history view (as we have no git backing, we would just walk up the
parentattribute that Posts have) - search all users gists

Research direction
The issue lists several possible Gist features—indent and wrapping controls, embeddable files, revision history, and searching users' Gists—but names no files, tests, or entry points. Choose one unchecked item with maintainer agreement, then identify its relevant UI and service areas and define completion criteria before starting.
