Just released! You can edit a component's text attributes from within the UI canvas, without going to the Properties pane.

This seems to be true of any component with a text type property, like titles, text, and cards.

The text seems to be editable in the canvas if the binding type is static text or a simple text formula without any functions. Otherwise, you have to manually change the binding type to static text.
