"control + a" and down/up should move the cursor after the icon

1. when editing an item, ^a jumps to the very beginning of the line and before the invisible markdown syntax, therefore it can break the marking quite easily, as the user expects to making modifications to the text only. - expected behaviour: ^a jumps to the beginning of the text within the item (after the bullet or checkbox), ^a again can go to the real beginning of the line 2. when editing nested item, keyboard up and down goes into the indented spaces of the nested item, which is hard to move to the beginning of the text to edit. given the following nested items: ``` - foo - bar ``` when the cursor is at f, and the user presses arrow down, I expected

right, this is the apple notes behaviour. note that it's not possible to move the cursor to the space before the indented items.

I'm not quite getting the second part. When moving the cursor up/down between indented items, it should move the cursor also after the icon? Maybe you got a gif or example from another app, I guess Apple Notes does it right?

Just in case it isn't clear for others, ^a = ctrl-a. These are both very good ideas.
