Start at bottom upon loading a document

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm trying to find a good text editor that can be opened through a File Browser by clicking the file. In this case, I'm trying to use it for a quick-note system. When I load this file, since it's really long, I want the screen scrolled to the bottom of the page so I don't have to scroll all the way every time when I want to jot a quick idea down.

Describe alternatives you've considered Markor, the app I'm trying to compare and contrast with, almost hits the mark except it doesn't properly Syntax Highlight the <!-- comments --> to be darker and less distracting. Markor has a toggleable setting under the "Edit mode" category called "Start on bottom" with the description "Upon loading document, position cursor at its end" which just scrolls the screen to the bottom without opening a keyboard or showing any visible cursor. To initiate typing, you'd click somewhere at the end of your line then the keyboard and cursor would show up. It's also uglier in my opinion; I love the minimalist look of Xed.

Describe the solution you'd like In the Editor settings under the Editor subsection, add a "Start at bottom" toggle that replicates this functionality.
