+ * block autoformatting, which replaces the entire line, and inline autoformatting,
+ * which expects a section to be formatted (but, importantly, not removed) surrounded by
+ * a pair of delimters which get removed.
+ *
+ * Neither of those are ideal for this case. We want to replace the matched text with a new element,
+ * without deleting the entire line.
+ *
+ * However, inlineAutoformatEditing allows for passing in a custom callback to handle
+ * regex matching, which also allows us to specify which sections to remove and
+ * which sections pass on to the formatting callback. This method removes the entire
+ * matched text, while passing the range of the numeric text on to the formatting callback.
+ *
+ * If 0 or more than 1 match is found, it returns empty ranges for both format and remove, which is a no-op.
