Description
Your idea
In #9277, the alignSystemToMargin style option was introduced, but it is currently not exposed in the UI.
This style setting controls whether brackets are placed inside or outside the system margin.
Since the option appears to function correctly when edited directly in the .mss file, I would like to request that it be made accessible via the UI.
Problem to be solved
Making the alignSystemToMargin option available in the UI allows more users to use it without editing .mss files.

Research direction
Start by tracing the existing alignSystemToMargin style option introduced in #9277 and its handling in .mss files. Find the desktop UI entry point for related style settings and determine where this option belongs. Done means users can change the option through the UI and the setting remains consistent with direct .mss editing.
