Format \> Insert Date is a great feature. Some feedback:

1. I think it’s miscategorised under the “Format” menu. I think it should be under “Insert.”
2. Is there any chance of adding a YYYY-MM-DD format? I guess it’s currently using the system format, which is great, but for note-taking where I want to sort dates, a YYYY-MM-DD format would be easier to sort

Thanks

Think we used to have YYYY-MM-DD-T-HH:MM:SS as an option 🤔
