CX2: The CX2 VE toolbar doesn't have a button to add section headings
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

In CX sections are supposed to be the same as in the source article. Nevertheless, translators sometimes want to add a new section. There is no way to add a section heading using the toolbar because the paragraph formatting button is intentionally removed.

It's possible to add them using ==, but even power users don't necessarily know this.

It would be nice to have VE's paragraph formatting button in CX2 as well, although perhaps it can be low-priority, for example behind a More (ellipsis) button.

Reported as part of Hebrew Wikipedia outreach. (T209270)

Content Translation main focus is for users to adapt existing content. Supporting this would be nice, but it requires to define a compact way to support it in the current Content Translation toolbar. For now we prefer to keep the tools minimal and focused on the main uscase and reconsider if we see this need appear again in the future.
