Add button for accessing text format options within text frame's properties

Your idea

Add a button on the properties panel of text frames that opens the text format options for the text within it.

Problem to be solved

As a new user of text frames, I spent the last 30 minutes searching for an option to align text to center (just because I was trying to end up with a result such as the one used as an example in the manual!).

I think it's really unintuitive for new users that you select the text frame and get options such as every padding imaginable but crucially you don't get any way of aligning the text to center. I ended up realizing I had to select the text inside the text frame, not the text frame itself.

I think this would be easily solved by either having alignment buttons on the text frame itself or by having a button on the text frame options that essentially selects all the text inside of it, thus triggering the reveal of text options in the properties panel.

Prior art

No response

Additional context

I was following this tutorial

Which has a screenshot of a kinda misleading result, since text frames by default have align-left.

No source file, test, or code entry point is named in the issue. Start by reproducing the text-frame properties workflow and compare selecting the frame with selecting text inside it; done means a user can access text alignment options from the text-frame properties context without manually selecting the text.
