those tabs can be individually closed and moved
opening notes without the new context menu action will open the note in
the current tab

since right-clicking a note in the note list also already opens the note
a click on the new context menu action will attempt to open the last note
to really open a new tab if only one tab was open
double clicking a note in the note list will now cause the note to be
loaded in a tab if no noteDoubleClickedHook was registered in the
scripting engine

file and note.allowDifferentFileName() to check if it is allowed to have a
different note file name than the headline (for #1704(opens new window))
fixed tag adding when moving tags to another parent in the tag panel when
handled by the scripting hook noteTaggingByObjectHook (for #1705(opens new window))
when the setting to show all notes of a tag including the notes of their
children-tags is turned on now the note-count in the tag tree is adapted to
also count the notes of the children-tags (for #1709(opens new window))
some safety measures against note folder update race-conditions when renaming
tags while using the note-tagging scripting hooks noteTaggingHook or
noteTaggingByObjectHook were included (for #1705(opens new window))
there now is a new scripting hook noteTaggingByObjectHook to implement your
own note tagging mechanism in a script (for #1703(opens new window))
similarly to noteTaggingHook you can implement your own note tagging
mechanism, but you are not bound to tag names in the tag tree root,
this way you can make use of the whole tag tree instead of only a tag list
links to urls ending with .md are now not highlighted as broken note links
in the editor any more
the column widths of the tag tree panel are now also recalculated when the
tree items are expanded or collapsed, not only when the tree is rebuilt or the

for all question dialogs where you clicked the checkbox Don't ask again! you

then pressed No, for example with shortcut-triggered dialogs like
Remove current note
for all dialogs where remembering your No makes sense all of your
decisions will be still remembered, for example with the dialog
Note editing is currently disabled, do you want to allow it again?
when you try to edit a note in read-only mode
added more Russian, German translation (thank you unchase, rakekniven)

added Māori translation (a big thank you to Fabijenna)
there now is a new predefined layout Preview only to choose from at the
initial setup and in the Layout settings that shows no note edit panel, but
the preview panel instead
you could use a workspace with this layout to switch between a workspace
with only the note edit and a workspace with only the preview with the
shortcut Alt + Shift + P
using a new layout in the Layout settings now creates a new workspace
instead of replacing the initial workspace, but keep in mind that workspaces
that demand that there is no central widget will not work properly if the
central widget is enabled
you can now also select text with they keyboard in the Debug information of
the Debug settings

immediately deleted if tags and tag assignments are not different to the ones
from the current notes.sqlite (for #1625(opens new window))

they would break the markdown link

way of linking will be used because otherwise the url would break the
markdown link

was switched (for #1631(opens new window))
if you accept the Link dialog while on the Note tab now a possible URL in
the URL tab will be removed so that your selected note will be inserted
instead of the URL

because of problems with brackets in note links

re-written (for #1598(opens new window), thank you @Waqar144)
