MAKE.md superstate triggers page refresh and loss of edit focus in Folder Note(s) (possibly other pages)

[barneym]

This is my first time using Obsidian since the April update to MAKE.md and my Obsidian vault started losing edit focus every few seconds, with periodic gaps of several minutes. After some investigation, this seems to trigger anytime the "superstate" event fires in Developer Tools Inspector. While the loss of focus seems to only be impacting Folder Notes (which I use extensively in Make.md), the flashing and slow refresh effect across all displayed content occurs every time.

Sample Dev Console output

Make.md Vault Index: 68.490966796875 ms plugin:make-md:42620 
Make.md Superstate: 3571 ms plugin:make-md:54307 
Make.md Vault Index: 39.382080078125 ms plugin:make-md:42620 
Make.md Superstate: 3383 ms plugin:make-md:54307 

I can also trigger the same effect without a "superstate" run if I attempt to type a #tag anywhere on the folder note page. This will simultaneously update the tag area at the top of the page (and hidden frontmatter) and at some point midway through typing the tag the page will refresh and interrupt your tag entry.

I've disabled all other community plugins and restarted obsidian multiple times, but the behavior is persistent.

This seems to be a new issue since the latest update as I was not having any issues when I last used Obsidian.

This is running on a 2020 5k 27" iMac Intel with latest version of Ventura installed. Also reproduces on M1 Mac, though "vault index and superstate" seems to have eventually stopped running every few seconds after a couple of hours of leaving the vault idle (possibly finished its indexing). Though the tag edits still trigger the page refresh.

This is about as deep as I've been able to go so far tonight. I'll try and setup a simple repro vault when I have time. But given the number of config settings and variables that could be involved I'm hoping others might have recommendations on what additional information I should check or capture.

Shouldn't this be labelled a Bug?

Obsidian is wonderful to use (all these wonderful plugins also add to its awesomeness) and one of the key reasons is that we don't have to use mouse for the most part. This particular issue does meddle with that aspect. Please do prioritize this.

Thanks.

There will be a fix in the next version for this issue. The plug-in rewrite is almost complete so it will be available soon.
