I would like to see #region / #endregion folding in the note editor, like how it currently works in the code editor. It would be a nice quality-of-life feature, making it easier to keep my notes organized, and I imagine it would be really easy to implement, since the note editor is pretty much just a modified version of the code editor.

The note editor is really just a nice screen for a text file, you can go into your project folder and see its really is just you editing a text file and a .yy to display it in one of the code blocks, I dont think they could put in region folding without having to make there own text file support

Code editor is really "just a nice screen for a text file" as well. *.gml file extension makes no difference, those are still text files. Files with .yy extension that accompany each script asset are .json files just containing metadata, same goes for every other asset in the project including notes. Please explain what's the difference as what you wrote makes zero sense to me.

EDIT: On topic - this is a sound suggestion. I still wouldn't find use for in-IDE notes (and I feel the demand for this would be quite low) but I don't see how adding this would be problematic or time-consuming.
