Research direction

Start by locating the developer documentation about CodeMirror configuration and the table and canvas editors. Explain that the table editor is embedded and the canvas editor runs in an iframe, and mention the tooltip issue linked in the report as context. Done when the documentation describes these editor contexts clearly.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently it isn't mentioned that the table editor is an embedded editor and the canvas editor is in an iframe causing issues for tooltips like https://forum.obsidian.md/t/codemirror-tooltip-cutoff-and-duplicated/117101/2.

Not sure what a natural way would be of mentioning this but at least something should be mentioned.
