Description
Using external note taking apps such as Marker from the FlatHub and storing the notes in the NC notes folder includes extra features such as Latex Maths. The rich text editor will automatically convert the single \ to double \. So this is a problem because opening a note with these formattings will automatically format the file this way.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add an option in the options dialog to disable that formatting feature, and also padding of tables with whitespace.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Not opening the note on the RTE but sometimes it happens accidentally.

Research direction
Locate the rich text editor and its options dialog, then trace the formatting behavior applied when notes are opened. Define the disabled behavior for backslash conversion and table whitespace padding, and verify that externally created notes remain unchanged when the option is enabled.
