Feature request: Documents - Copy as markdown for text/plain

[acheong08]

Currently, copying a bullet point list from Huly creates a lot of whitespace.

For example:

# Title

- one
- two

becomes

Title





one



two

Instead, it should return the original markdown or some other rich text format.

Currently, my solution to getting stuff out is to first export it as JSON, extracting the document with jq, and converting to markdown with prosemirror. Not very convenient.

Update:

acheong@fishy ~> wl-paste --list-types
text/html
text/plain;charset=utf-8
UTF8_STRING
COMPOUND_TEXT
TEXT
text/plain
STRING
text/plain;charset=utf-8
text/plain
SAVE_TARGETS

So it does already copy as HTML. The only problem is the weird spacing and formatting for text/plain where it should be markdown instead

So wl-paste --type text/html | html2md -i works

There seems to already been a CopyDocumentMarkdown function for Cards. Equivalent missing for documents.

Lines 603 to 610 in fd8bcda

	async function CopyDocumentMarkdown (
	doc: Doc | Doc[],
	evt: Event,
	props: {
	contentClass: Ref<Class<Doc>>
	contentField: string
	}
	): Promise<void> {

	action: view.actionImpl.CopyDocumentMarkdown,
	actionProps: {
	contentClass: card.class.Card,
	contentField: 'content'
	},
	label: view.string.CopyDocumentMarkdown,
