fix: disable slash menu in table content #2408

[nperez0111]

Summary

This disables the slash menu from triggering within table content

Rationale

Table content cannot have block-level elements inserted within it, so they should be excluded from being considered.

Changes

Impact

I'm unsure how we can filter out only the slash menu from being invoked within table content. It feels to me like we need a callback API too which would filter out the sort of context that we'd be satisfied with triggering the suggestion menu within.

I'm unsure how we can filter out only the slash menu from being invoked within table content. It feels to me like we need a callback API too which would filter out the sort of context that we'd be satisfied with triggering the suggestion menu within.

Good catch. I think this our options are:

• refactor triggerCharacter to something like menuOptions: {triggerCharacter: string, filterTransaction: (tr) => boolean}
• or, zoom out and see if we'd want to refactor this component further (i.e.: make it more inline with the plugin / UI Element refactor from last year)
