How are you using Legend?

Legend Query

What problems are you trying to solve?

When a user tries to edit a query directly in text mode, a new modal appears and serves as the location for the user to do so:

However, ideally the text mode version should just cause a switch to the current query builder modal rather than the overlay of a new modal

where the panels like the explorer, parameters, content, etc. panel are replaced with a window for the text mode.

Describe the solution you would like to see implemented

This will require more thought on what exactly we want to leave in during the text form switch (for example, we'd likely still want the headers and query-builder__sub-header with information like the title of the query to remain.

Describe alternatives you have considered

@xannem one thing to note is that the unsupported mode should by default show text, with the problem (which triggers unsupported mode) to show up somewhere. The other important thing to note here is to think about text mode almost like another view of form mode and structure the code that way like what we have in #1898
