Research direction
Reproduce the scenario with a Nextcloud server that cannot offer direct editing, with the internal editor disabled, then open a note for editing. Trace the iOS editor-selection flow to find where the fallback is chosen without an explanation. Done means the user is told that only the internal editor can be used, and the behavior is covered by an appropriate test if the project provides one.
