Hi,

I would like to implement a CKEditor5 custom button right next to "bold" and "italic". Clicking this button should replace each character in the selected word with a "█".

Example:  

"The quick brown ███  jumps over the lazy dog." - when "fox" was marked.

I am aware of this plugin tutorial, but before i delve into it (i'm not a coder), can anyone can point me to a resource (or another instance like a module) where something like this has been done (e.g. with a star (*) character, which is often used for censoring)? Or is writing a new plugin the only option?

I created a demo of this redaction system on a HTML page:

It also skips blank spaces, so it would be perfect enough to put it into CKEditor5, but i don't know how.
