Research direction

Reproduce the offline Markdown workflow on iOS 15.6.1 with Nextcloud Liquid iOS 4.4.4.0: mark a file available offline, enable flight mode, and use Favourites > Open In. Trace the offline file and sharing flow; done means Markdown contents remain accessible in a text editor while offline.
