Version information:

Frontend Version: 0.20.5

API Version: v0.20.4
OS Version: macOS ventura 13.4
Browser Version: Firefox 112.0.2

Steps to reproduce:

Create a new task item or enter one already created
When editing the description or a comment, adding a "check list" needs to be done manually by typing * [ ] ....

Expected behavior:

Next to the buttons for adding Unordered/Ordered List, I would like to see the addition of a Check List button. Possible solution can be seen in the editor here on Gitea.

Actual behavior:

Manually entering the check list sequence is needed.

Downside of current implementation

You need to type the exact sequence with spaces in the right places * [ ] .... Missing spaces at any of the places will not render Markdown correctly.

Upside of requested implementation

Pressing a button or a shortcut, can enter the needed sequence for correct markdown rendering and thus omit the problems in typing manually.

This will hopefully be resolved once we switch to tiptap.
