[Bug]: Wrapping a selection with backtics doesn't highlight it as inline code#22475
Before submitting
- I searched existing issues and did not find a duplicate.
- I included enough detail to reproduce or investigate the problem.
Area
apps/desktop
Steps to reproduce
- Type anything and select it
- Press the backtick key (`)
Expected behavior
For the word to be wrapped in an inline code block.
Actual behavior
The selection is wrapped in backticks but not in the inline code block.
What's worse, this bug then derails the rest of the inputs so that typing a backtick inline incorrectly wraps everything between the last "closing" backtick and the new "opening" backtick as code. Hence the escalation from "Cosmetic" to "Minor bug" in the Impact dropdown.
Impact
Minor bug or occasional failure

Workaround
The workaround is to manually place the backtics before and after the word in that particular order.
This may be related to #3142 except that it happens on a US keyboard layout as well.
