Airtable is so powerful already, but where it currently falls down is as a wiki substitute. I want to be able to use a long text field (or equivalent) to describe some aspect of my record and include in it some links to other records in a contextual way, as I would do with a wiki. If I could @ them like I do my airtable users, that would be ideal.

We can sort of do this in the Page Designer block by adding placeholders using the name of the field in {} brackets. It would be great if we could do that in long text fields too.

+1! Especially now that we can use the new โ€œbuttonโ€ to form mails with predefined text.

eg: to autofill the email body with {name} or other data
