'Find' should offer a JSON mode

Under Atlas > Clusters > Collections I can select a Collection and use the 'Find' option to quickly seek and edit a Document. At the moment the UI display is like JSON, but has stripped out the brackets, which makes copying the data awkward. Feature 1: The find display UI should offer a JSON mode, so the the Document, or parts of it can be copied in JSON format. If I select the Edit option, the editing UI is 'intelligent', in that it forces JSON compliance via the various options. However, this makes pasting in new data impossible. Feature 2: The Find Edit mode, should offer a JSON option, so a whole Document can be added in one paste operation. It could 'translate' this back into the current UI if necessary, much in the same way web HTML editors offer a display or source mode.

    I was just using the JSON editor. Is this idea already implemented?
