[[Feature Request]]: Superscript and Subscript custom delimiters don't support spaced words

[zhmstr]

Superscript or subscript format options doesn't work well if there are space characters between words.

pretty self-explanatory.

I think that's the way Pandoc super/subscript does. It doesn't allow any whitespace inside. I wrote this explanation as well.
See:

Yeah, Pandoc gives us an option to escape whitespace with backslash. But, dealing with the backslash escaping sequence in Obsidian is such a limitation that I cannot surpass it.

Oh, if it's an unfixable issue. could the context menu command (More Format > Subscript/Superscript) check whether the selected text has space? That way, it could use HTML tags or custom !!{sub}span!! tags with sub/super classes instead of those custom Pandoc-style delimiters.

No, it couldn't. Instead, I'll add an option to support whitespace inside Pandoc-style super/subscript. So, anyone can enable/disable this feature under the settings.
