Research direction
Examine the editor toolbar implementation in Flutter. Look for the toolbar widget at `frontend/app flowy/packages/appflowy editor/lib/src/editor/toolbar/`. Identify existing formatting buttons (e.g., bold, italic) and add a new 'Remove Formatting' button that calls a method to clear all formatting on the selected text. Review the `format` and `unformat` actions in the editor's transaction system. Test on both mobile and desktop platforms.
