Typing opening bracket or brace in request body auto-completes closing bracket or brace

Yaak v2024.13.0 on Linux Mint 22

When the cursor is positioned in the request body textbox I press the { key on the keyboard.

Expected result: the text { appears in the textbox Actual result: the text {} appears in the textbox

Same with ( and [. There doesn't appear to be any option to disable this.

I consider this a bug, because a textbox should, first and foremost, allow the user to type text. This textbox fails to do that. (This "feature" is probably intended for editing JSON, but it happens even with the request type dropdown set to "TEXT" or "XML", for example.)

This behavior is extremely annoying and may be a blocker for me to using Yaak at all (depending on how much I end up needing to edit text).
