Description
### Describe the problem
The current editor lacks some of the features that would be nice to have like:
* https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/issues/12568
* https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/issues/7797
It also sometimes suffers with highlighting overlay getting out of sync with the content (haven't seen this for a while, but it was recurring issue for years).
### Solution brainstorm
Let's look into other options for editors. What would be the perfect solution?
* Syntax highlighting for several formats (XML, HTML, reStructuredText, Markdown, ...)
* Highlighting/freezing placeables from the source string (https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/issues/7797)
* Replacing and inserting values from JavaScript (visual keyboard, automatic suggestions, check fixes, ...)
* Whitespace chars help (non-breakable or zero-width spaces, text direction changes, ...) (https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/issues/12568)
Bonus points:
* The search input also needs changes, but I'm not convinced that there is something to share (see https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/issues/3063).
