How about this idea for a Mastodon client feature? 

What if:
1) Type a toot as normal in the box large enough to comfortably edit things.
2) Press CW button.
3) First "paragraph" of toot – everything before the first explicit ␍ and/or ␊ or whatever you kids are using these days – is automatically moved into the CW box!

And as a bonus:
4) Press CW button to turn it off...
5) ...and whatever's in the CW box is automatically inserted into the main text box for convenient editing.

Thoughts?

How about this idea for a Mastodon client feature? 

Ah, thought of another bonus to this – it would make it even more intuitive that a CW counts against total toot length!
