We are taking a look at this, if anyone wants to check the status, observe the https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor5/issues/14146 and its subtasks.

The implementation is close to completion, but we would love to hear some feedback. [The details are gathered in the comment.](https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor5/issues/14146#issuecomment-1632607316)

:tada: This feature was merged to the `master` and is available on the [nightly releases](https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor5/issues/14724) and [nightly docs](https://ckeditor5.github.io/docs/nightly/ckeditor5/latest/examples/builds-custom/full-featured-editor.html) to test.

The example that you showed [is not valid HTML](https://validator.w3.org/nu/#textarea) according to its spec: > **Text not allowed in element** [**`ul`**](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/#the-ul-element) **in this context.** > > Content model for element [`ul`](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/#the-ul-element):...

At the current moment, I think it's safe to say we will not implement this feature in the foreseeable future. The GHS plugin is our main proposal for preserving HTML....

> @Witoso Would there be a workaround for the 2nd use case? where we can add loops or conditions? For such input, you could try to utilize [the HTML embed...

I'm not sure if I fully understand, could it be a duplicate of: #15849?
