Inline fields multiline lists and texts

I would like to have a nicer syntax for multiline lists in inline fields.

Right now we have two ways to define fields

front matter

---
my-list:
  - long item with commas,,,,and quotes"""" etc
  - another item
---

and inline field

my-list:: long item with commas,,,,and quotes""""
my-list:: another item

front matter approach has its own flaws with escaping single and double quotes, that I don’t want to touch here

so I am more interested in the better way of handling multiline lists in inline fields with something like

my-list:: @@@
  - long item with commas,,,,and quotes""""
  - another item
@@@

@@@ -is just a marker for multiline field

This approach will also allow setting multiline text variables

my-multi-line-text:: @@@"
Really long text with any possible characters including "quotes",
line breaks

empty lines

etc
"@@@

I’m still fiddling with some performance things, but Dataview does have a full markdown parser implementation now (that’s just not hooked up to the indexer): https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview/blob/master/src/data/parse/markdown.ts.

We can afford to be more aggressive with a real markdown parser, since it includes indentation information & other things for paragaphs. So we could simply use indented codeblock syntax:

field::
    I am an indented codeblock, which would now allow for arbitary multiline text!

I see this feature-request has been quite since January. This would make list of links in a field much more readable.

From my very limited perspective if the following list format would be supported that would drastically improve readability of long list:

field::
- [[Item 1]]
- Item 2
- [[Item 3]]
