[low priority] "Open in Composer"

Original: NodeBB/NodeBB#3450

Seems like it would take quite a bit of an overhaul, hence the low priority tag

I'll take a look at it when I go back over the composer to hopefully simplify the codebase and convert most of the view logic to CSS. I may just end up doing a complete rewrite, who knows.

That's ambitious, if I do say so myself 😄 Not that I don't have faith, just that it may be a bit larger of a task than you imagine, simply because of the number of integrations.

As it stands now, a composer session is tied to some id, whether it be a tid or cid. Divorcing it from that could be done.

Well I did rewrite nodebb-plugin-calendar for the third time, and the composer isn't quite as complex. Plus, a lot of the view logic can be replaced with CSS, which makes everything a lot easier.

May need to use a bit of absolute positioning or calc. Would love to use flexbox, but unfortunately, IE is a thing.
