Feature request -- trigger for JSON editor

[tony-gutierrez]

A common use case is probably to initially paste in a chunk of json, and then edit it in the editor.

There is an edit button next to root that goes to a nice textarea for pasting in JSON. I would like to be able to trigger that view externally with my own button.

Currently I workaround by using tabs, one with the editor and one with my own textarea.

Good suggestion, thanks. It would have to be a single trigger for only the outermost/root JSON editor, right?

That's my use case.

Would need to do something like this:

Just putting that here as a note to self.

There's been another request for an external trigger for something else (can't remember what right now), so I'll probably do this with a range of internal functions that can be triggered via a single prop.
