Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Rich text editor is cool and whatever, but can't handle markdown as pasta, i'd prefer to have a button to switch to raw text rather than opening settings, scrolling through and finding a popup to switch to raw just to paste and then go back to settings and switch it back..

Describe the solution you'd like
easily accessible GUI element (button) to switch between wysiwyg editor and raw text.

Describe alternatives you've considered
