A lot of comments about how this is another case of useless bloat. I don't know, markdown is just incredibly useful and widespread and yet it is pretty annoying to find a good editor:

- There wasn't anything that comes with Windows that natively supports it (before now)

- All your favorite text editors don't support it natively, and plugins vary

- You can pay for a nice markdown editor but for some reason your more powerful usual text editor is still free?

- You can open VSCode, which is hilarious overkill if you just want to take some notes. Obsidian is excellent but same problem.

- Maybe something I'm missing?

Basically I think it is a great thing if I just get a lightweight markdown friendly editor built in, because I'll probably use it all the time.

...except if it immediately leads to a CVE, I guess.
