Release notes

Users have reported frustration with how auto-close quotes (brackets and braces included) functions.

For example: script: echo "Hello, World"
If I add a leading quote, I'll get this: script: 'echo "Hello, World"
If I add an ending quote, I'll get this: script: 'echo "Hello, World"''
If I backspace the first quote at the end, both go away. If I press delete, then it'll keep the first.

The solution proposed is adding the ability to disable this feature in the UI.

Problem to solve

Some users do not prefer to edit code this way, as it can add a lot of extra work to fix the extra quote made and trying to find consistency with how this feature is supposed to work.

Proposal

Many popular IDEs implement the same exact feature that we use in our product but also has ways of disabling auto-closing quotes.
VS Code
JetBrains
The ask is to have a way to disable this via the UI for the user or any method to make editing easier for them.
