Is there a way in Thunderbird to highlight some text, copy the format of the text and later paste the format onto other text?

In Microsoft Word, there is a function called "Format Painter". I'm looking for a similar function in the Thunderbird text composer.

As far as I know this feature is not available in Thunderbird, surprisingly not even in any extensions. However, there is a feature request for it on Bugzilla which you can vote for if you'd like: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=417157
