Change the behavior: Only ask for the %title% variable. The %url% should always come from the address bar, and the markdown for Title and Note should always come from settings. You just press tab, type something, hit enter. Easy.
Keep current behavior: Ask user to edit the full, populated markdown. For example you prefer to select text from Title: [Super long title that goes way past the width of the field so you have to scroll drag to find the end](URL that you for some reason want to be editing) Note: [Super long title that goes way past the width of the field so you have to scroll drag to find the end](URL that you for some reason want to be editing) or whatever your default markdown may be.
I would love a third option, which is for it to send the payload to my inbox without any further action.
So clipping a web page with no selection would be a one-step process (press clipper), and clipping a selection would be a two-step process (highlight text to select, press clipper). If I want to add a note or otherwise modify what’s clipped, I can always do that later in Dynalist.
I’d love if I have something similar to Roam Highlighter … where i can actually highlight a bunch of things and then send them together as one item… or something like that.
I am currently annoyed with the fact that I can only add quotes one by one with defuses the purpose of highlighting some text as you go.

I tested it. Without a cursor it seems to be able to select / highlight by single words only. And even if we select a bunch of words in a row, the highlighter does not select the spaces, so in Dynalist we get a list of single words (Could be useful in some cases.)
Anywho, I have a feeling that on mobile devices with stylus support, where we see a circle when the stylus is hovering above the screen, it might work. Maybe same if we enable a visible cursor?
