retitle current Draft

Created by FlohGro (Twitter)

This action creates a Prompt which displays the title of the current Draft. You can edit the title in the text field and choose to either save the edits (which replaces the current title) or choose to prepend the edit as a new title of the Draft.
You can use this action on its own or include it in other ones to change the title before sharing the draft somewhere.

note: this action does not check for syntax of the Draft, so if you have e.g. a markdown note make sure to keep the heading symbols in the text field!
