Rich text editor search can't find text within code blocks

Operating system

macOS

Joplin version

3.1.22

What issue do you have?

Hi,

The search in Joplin's rich text editor can't find words, if they are contained inside, e.g., single ` (tilde) characters.

I see this was already asked in 2022 but I can't reply to it: Search in page does not work properly when using Rich Markdown

Is there any way that upstream TinyMCE bugs or limitations can be asked about?

This limitation is increasingly annoying me, meaning I can't input data inside text quotes in Joplin without having to copy and paste entire text just to find it later.

Thanks for your help.
