Simple Editorial 1.0.1

Simple Editorial 1.0.1 adds a keyboard-friendly, one-comment-at-a-time workflow while preserving persistent Comment Mode for mobile review sessions.

Changes

• Rename the existing Insert comment command to Toggle comment while preserving its command ID and existing hotkey assignments
• Insert an empty comment at the cursor
• Wrap selected text as an Obsidian comment
• Remove comment markers when the cursor or selection is inside the comment, including both marker boundaries
• Wrap the whole word when the cursor is strictly inside it
• Prevent nested comments and partial-boundary edits
• Document configurable desktop hotkeys

The persistent Comment Mode behavior remains unchanged.
