Reply tooltip when highlighting text
Problem to solve
When I respond to previous comments in issues, I frequently use >
to quote their comment. I find myself doing this frequently, which involves highlighting the text I'm interested in, scrolling back down to the comment box, pasting, and appending it with >
. This is tedious.
Proposal
- When I highlight comment or description text, display a tooltip on the highlighted text with a "reply" option.
- When I click reply, add the highlighted text to the comment box appended with
>
and snap my view down to it.
