Research direction

Read ADR 0089 §2 and the source-mode questions E-1 to E-4 in issue #57; issue #73 also lists #72 as a blocker. Decide the source view, toggle behavior, undo, and how leaving with errors works before implementation. Acceptance criteria are still unwritten, so done is not yet defined.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

needs-decision textediting

What to build

Switch a field to FieldWorks Markdown, see checker findings in place, and import on leaving through the checker, Dry Run and Proposal path (ADR 0089 §2). Only the source-mode questions of #57 are in scope; VS Code and the language server wait until after FieldWorks Markdown 1.0 (owner 2026-11-07).

Decisions needed first

#57 E-1 to E-4: what the source view is (recommended: a second RichTextField), what the toggle switches, undo, and leaving with errors.

Acceptance criteria

To be written once decided.
