Formatting : text color & highlight

Feature Request

It would be nice to have more text formating options.
For examples, I like to highlight in yellow parts that contain a plot element I need to work on.
Highlight in orange parts to re-write later.
Highlight in grey parts that might be deleted later.
Highlight in purple parts that need research.
Etc.

    Highlight text with different colors

    Proposed from an user: I notice when rephrasing I tend to keep old sentences until I'm fully happy. I love the purple color when using insert because is shows what sentence was used, but the color disappears as soon as you edit it. So maybe an idea to make it possible for people to highlight certain texts with colors? I know it could help me greatly, like coloring old text and attaching a note I have to safekeep it temporarily. I now use strike or italic, but since it's all one color it can get confusing fast.

    Yellow Highlight prose text

    Sometimes I am pasting text into my pros ducument to compare two similar paragaphs or more. I would be be nice to differentiate the new with the old to better go back and forth with the editing process. Perhaps having the ability to highlight in yellow or another color would help make it easier to work with.

    Highlighter

    It would be great to have the ability to highlight in a few colors to know that we need to go back to that section and re-work it or add to it. Right now, we only have the bold or underline option, and I find that to be very limiting. Can we get the highlighting added?
