Not clear what this does? Also, copy button doesn’t work on iOS.

it's a wysiwyg-style editor for bold / italics / etc where it replaces the selected range with the unicode bold/etc characters.

type some text, then select it. that'll give you a format editor.

Doesn't work with accented latin alphabet characters ("ü𝕓𝕖𝕣") - is it a fundamental restriction of the styled unicode charset or a mapping issue? Seems like it should be supported but would need a transition from precomposed characters to the equivalent combination of letter + diacritic.

It does not work with numbers either, though that can be worked around a little bit by using the number-in-circle variants.
