Feature Request: Ability to edit JSON data in Popup editor about sequel-ace HOT 9 CLOSED

The viewing works well for me, inserting correct newlines and indentation. But I have two suggestions which may belong as separate issues:

1. Detect the type of cell content and display as JSON instead of text automatically
2. JSON syntax highlighting

And yes, editing in this view would be great.

In version 2.2 the formatting is working well for me. However, you can't edit text in this view. It would also be cool to do syntax highlighting.

I still think this is an good feature

Just to be clear, the viewing functionality is fine. Now this request is just about being able to edit the data as JSON?

Just bumping to keep the request open
As @llamafilm suggested, JSON syntax highlighting would be nice

Formatting would also equally/more helpful, to help with the inspection of json data.
A large chunk of JSON data can be quite hard to read if its not formatted,
At the moment, i often need to copy the field into Vscode or similar, format it, edit it, and then copy it back....
so perhaps the ability to toggle formatting?

eg:

{"name":"calumk","arr":[{"a":0},{"b":1}]}

-->

{
    "name":"calumk",
    "arr":[
        {
            "a":0
        },
        {
            "b":1
        }
    ]
}

I appreciate this is a big addition, so not expecting it, but its certainly on my wish-list!
