Default highlighting is now more tedious (Update 1.14)

Use case or problem

Before 1.14 update, you typed == for highlighting and the == closing was automatically typed.
Now, typing == open a switch-tab where you have to choose a colour before automatically closing the right ==.

I find this confusing when I just want to use the default highlights. Obsidian Team makes a great work, but I find that new features shouldn’t affect the previous workflow/writing if not wanted.

Proposed solution

Enable an option in the settings where it is possible to choose a default color and not showing this new color tab.

Current workaround (optional)

Typing Enter every time I type == for writing a highlight

I just tested this and it’s not true. the closing == was not automatically typed.

OK, but we still didn’t have to choose a color, just type and go.

(I’m not using the beta so can’t verify what it does, just pointing out the other half of the concern that wasn’t addressed.)

you don’t have to choose a color either, you can keep on typing.
