Secure Notes should have a per-note markdown option
I am affected by the current markdown bug described here & it's annoying - looking forward to a fix soon:
but I want to bring up the longer term problem of markdown being an application preference.
We are technical 1Password users & gain great benefit from storing structured data such as YAML or even JSON in secure notes. We definitely don't want that rendered with markdown as it would be a clownshow
At the same time, we would like to use markdown for human-facing notes needing some formatting
We also provision our employees with secure notes through CLI/API and we can't know whether users have markdown turned on or off
These points above are a strong case for having the markdown flag being associated with each secure note - so you can have some that use markdown and some that do not - rather than an application preference where it's all or nothing
I have talked to support years ago about this concept & it seemed at the time you were enthusiastic about that possibility
Hopefully there is still a future possibility we can mix & match markdown & plain text across our secure notes
