Expected result

The TinyMCE editor needs some buttons to add specific tags such as < abbr >.
This is because not everyone knows how to use the code-side editor, whereas with a button, every user could do so, which would also make the backend a little more accessible.
Thank you.

Actual result

No one

I am working on a core plugin that will support abbr elements, the tinymce part is already done but the integration is taking some time

Are there any other elements that are needed?
