v0.11.0

v0.11.0 (2023-05-23)

Arguably no major new features but this version comes with substantial bugfixes! Most notably:

• Proper support for tabs
• Remove redundant spaces on paste
• Revised triple click heuristics
• Fixed NodeSelection clicks on Android
• Revised deletion heuristics style retention
• Revised createRectsFromDOMRange for Mark-like plugins

(you can read more on these on the changelog below)

LexicalContextMenu (experimental)

While we strongly advocate for a11y and features that work across devices, there is significant demand for desktop users to have access to tooling via the right click. UX-wise, they're very familiar with it as it's common within other editors such as the well-known Google Docs, Pages and Microsoft Word and it's also the fastest.

LexicalContextMenu is a WIP and not ready for production but the prototype is already live in the Playground under a feature flag (see the gear on the bottom left to enable it /?shouldUseLexicalContextMenu=true)

Breaking Changes

@lexical/link will now sanitize anchor tag hrefs before rendering them to the DOM. This provides a measure of protection against XSS attacks
that rely on inlining javascript in that attribute. However, it means that links using less common protocols will now be sanitized (converted to about:blank),
which will be a breaking change for any existing links.

Like most other node-based logic in Lexical, the sanitization logic can be overriden by overriding LinkNode using the Node Overrides API and replacing it with a node that implements the sanitizeUrl method differently.
