Embed a Formatting Bar/Rich Text Editor in Forms

Similar to the capabilities that this very field provides, I would love if Blackbaud could embed a formatting bar/rich text editor in forms, allowing applicants to add basic formatting such as bold, italics, and bullet points to their submissions. Currently, our applicants' only formatting options are basic text, line breaks, basic symbols, capital letters, etc.

A feature like this would significantly improve functionality for applicants as well as readability for our program officers.

    Is this one still under consideration? Now that technologies have changed some perhaps it's time to start adding this functionality. Not having the ability to store ital, bold, etc. creates a lot of hand editing for our team and then we have nowhere to store that work in the database. It often ends up in many Word docs or outside databases. Could it be a type of field so that it isn't implemented across all possible data fields? I can imagine that would be difficult. It would also be very helpful for applicants so they can correctly get information to us.
