Mark-Kashman - great to see that community feedback on this blog post is being passed through to development backlog.
I'd like to provide some feedback about the the rich text editor for the multi-line column type. It is completely different to the rich text editor used in the text web part used on pages, which results in incorrect font styling when list items are embedded on a SharePoint page.
At present our options are to switch into classic mode to 'fix' the html by adding inline styling or through applying JSON . Neither of these options are ideal for our front-end authors who have little to know coding knowledge - and we don't expect them to.
I'm therefore sending a heartfelt plea for Microsoft to change the rich text editor for the multi-line text field in lists so that it is the same as the one used for page web parts.
Best regards
Jenny
