Bug #2032

Rich text message display and editor toolbar are controlled by a single option/toggle
Added by krigstask almost 8 years ago.
Updated over 7 years ago.
Description
I can toggle Rich Text toolbar by clicking "Enable rich text" button (which should have two states: pressed/released — enabled/disabled), but it works for current chat tab only.
I would like to disable it completely for all the chats. I somehow did have that configured, but recently Leechcraft lost all my GUI preferences.
P.S. "About > Authors" still has 2015 as final year:

Azoth → Appearance → Chat windows → Show rich text message body (if available).
Yeah, that's a bit counter-intuitive this option both controls what it says it controls and the rich text editor, but I couldn't think of a better name for it.
Could you maybe split that into two options?
- "Show rich text body (if available)"
- "Use rich text mode for writing your messages"
That'd be much more intuitive. Also disabling the first option should disable (and make it "unenablable").
I thought about this, but IMO this means that the chat tab should also have two buttons doing the very same thing, but on the tab level. This seems clumsy.

I don't think there's a reason to have per-tab "Display Rich Text" button, and unambiguousity of addding a checkbox for default rich text toolbar state is more important.

Personally I have this enabled for the Point's XMPP bot, and disabled for most if not all of the other chats. And having a rich text editor for Point doesn't make much sense, so here's at least one usecase proving the reverse :)
I actually think of making those two checkboxes independent — if one wants to disable displaying rich contents but still have rich text editor, I assume they know what they're doing.
