Feature request: /me command

Expected behavior

When I type /me does something it gets rendered as * Aminda does something like on IRC, XMPP, Matrix, some Discord clients (that turn it to *does something* instead) etc. like it was describing what I am doing as sender in third person.

Actual behavior

The /me does something appears just like that, without special rendering.

Example Images

None.

Additional context

In XMPP /me handling is entirely clientside while the protocol message is just /me does something (and that is one of the many things I love about XMPP). I think it could be copied to DeltaChat if not just converting it clientside.
