    I've been wanting to build a WYSIWYG editor for some tooling and thought it would be pretty easy using TextMesh Pro (since it has most if not all of the functionality I want in the form of richtext tags), but it doesn't seem to be possible to use in editor? At least not yet.

    I've seen in some places that TMPro is being integrated into Unity in some sense, so I wonder, will it be possible then? I assume it will work with UI Toolkit, so it shouldn't be a problem, I guess?

    That is correct. The core functionality available in TMP is currently present in the new TextCore module which UI Toolkit uses. In the future, TMP will also switch over to using the new TextCore module which will provided even more functionality.
