Have there been any improvements to the authoring canvas?
We've had a lot of pain and suffering with Delve blogs due to the limitations for text formatting, especially for users who wanted more control over font size/monospaced fonts. We've also discovered and reported a bug that if you have Doc-ID enabled a site collection then the New Authoring Canvas can't resolve the URL (so, inserting docs doesn't work).

Hi Kevin,
Yes, there are quite a few improvements to the authoring canvas that hopefully will address your needs.
We have added the following to text editing:
- Multilevel headings
- Stronger copy/paste behavior
- Left/right/center align
- We have not added functionality for different fonts, but capturing your feedback!
Additionally we have added a series of new/improved web parts:
- Document web part - now you can browse your site for documents to embed in addition to uploading one
- Embed web part
- Highlighted content web part
- Yammer web part

What about this?
