The editor I use in everyday life is Vim (Vi). Here you switch
between modes all the time. But you do so without taking your fingers

long as one could keep the mouse out of the business.

Also, you might like to note that there is an Edit Source function in
the Tools menu. That is the place where one should be entering data in
raw format, not in the standard main window. A possible improvement
would be to have the Edit Source function

Then why do you prefer that you can type //some text// to have it
italicized in the normal window? What is wrong with Ctrl-I before and
after? It is exactly the confusion between raw/source mode and normal

The fact that I don't need to switch between edit and view mode is
