Better late than never... revamps to mobile composer

The problem of limited screen real-estate is exacerbated by the fact that some keyboards (lookin' at you, Apple ) take up more than 50% of the screen. Browser toolbars take up a chunk, so I'd love to get rid of that to... Anyhow, work in progress, open to comments:

I think we should have a button to show the options. We still need these options often.

Formatting options are less important than the primary elements, but I agree, they should still be accessible. Will look into putting it to the right of the tags input, possibly.

@julian Can we make it scroll-able? Maybe a box inside the modal which overflow will have a scroll.
Just an opinion.

I imagine it would follow the way iOS currently does it, the text area is a fixed size, once you've typed below that line, you'd be able to scroll up and down inside the text box.

@a_5mith Yeah, I think we can do some tricks to make it fixed size according to the device's screen. And when the keyboard show up it will have a scroll bar

Fun thing about Apple Safari on iOS the bars that are not removable takes like 100px of the total height resulting in a 400px height canvas for your website and add the keyboard over this to have some fun.
