 2. 🐞 Clicking on the I doesn't cause any changes, no reverse italics

 3. 🐞 Can also confirm there is a problem in the front end

 === Expected Results
 1. The text is switched to non-italics in the editor when clicking on I
 2. Text is shown in italic in the front end.

 === Actual Results with the Patch
 1. ✅ Italics are reverse on I clicking.
 2. ❌ The text is still not shown in italics in the front end.

 === Additional Notes
 - Hey @sabernhardt I've never thought deeply about this topic. You suggest
 that clicking on the "I" button should cause a "Reverse Italics" effect,
 right? It's not super intuitive for me, but makes sense, at least the
 button should cause some type of switching effect, and given that the text
 is "italized" by default. Wasn't fully clear by reading OP report to me.

 - @lakshyajeet from your patch I see you are only covering the "reverse
 italics part" we are talking here, but also ideally, you should be
 covering the front end problem.
