Single click WYSIWYG cell editing in Notebooks #4831

Request that the notebook experience allows for 1-click editing for notebook cells when in Preview mode. One challenge our customers are facing is the numerous amount of clicks needed to get started in editing their content. In OneNote this is very simple -- 1 click and start typing away. In the notebook experience, 1 click to select the cell, and double click to focus on the cell's text in preview mode.

Talking to Raden, it seems that this was intentional in the past since Markdown was the primary form of writing content into the cell. From what I gather, single click editing was not pursued due to the the cursor landing in an inappropriate place in the markdown whenever the user clicked on the preview mode. Fortunately, this is no longer the case as we now can edit the content in the preview mode as well thanks to the WYSIWYG.

Describe the solution or feature you'd like
Request single-click editing in notebook cells. Some visual cues may be useful, such as border highlight on cell on hover, etc. We need to loop Raden on this.

Describe alternatives you've considered
None that I can think of so far.

Additional context
We need to make notebook editing as simple as OneNote make it for users to edit content. Anything else is felt like a challenging experience to our users.
