Section-Level "Reset to Default" Action

Feature Request: Section-Level "Reset to Default" Action

Summary:
Introduce a section-level "Reset to default" action that replaces all current text in a section with its predefined default text. The action should be clearly labeled, require explicit user confirmation, and only be available when a default value exists for that section.

Problem Statement:
Currently, when users modify a section’s content, there is no simple way to revert just that section back to its original default text. Users must manually delete or overwrite their changes and then retype or copy/paste the original content from another source. This is slow, error-prone, and discourages experimentation because users worry they cannot easily restore the default wording if their edits do not work out.

Proposed Solution:
Add a section-level "Reset to default" option for any section that has a configured default text value.
When the user clicks "Reset to default":

  • Display a confirmation dialog warning that all current text in that section will be replaced with the default text.

  • Require the user to confirm before proceeding (e.g., primary action: "Reset to default", secondary: "Cancel").

  • If confirmed, replace the entire current section content with the stored default text value.

  • If canceled, leave the section unchanged.

The action should:

  • Only be visible/enabled when a default text value exists for the section.

  • Optionally be tracked as a single undoable operation (if supported by the editor) so the user can revert the reset via undo.

Benefits:

  • Saves time by providing a one-click way to restore a section’s original default content.

  • Reduces errors and inconsistencies caused by manually recreating or copying default text.

  • Encourages users to experiment with edits, knowing they can easily revert to the default.

  • Lowers support and frustration related to accidentally overwriting or deleting section content.
