Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Usually not everything in a document is important. It would be great to have a document summary functionality that only shows the important parts.

Describe the solution you'd like
For me it would be enough if I could mark some things in a document as important and then those items show up in a bullet point list at the top of the document or something like that.

Describe alternatives you've considered
This could be implemented with AI as well, but personally I don't care about that because the AI will never know what is truly important in my documents and what not.

Additional context
I'm not sure if a similar feature has been considered or requested, just searching for "summary" in the issues leads to a lot of useless results.
