Adv Option window - JSON auto-formatting

We have noticed that since updating to v2023.05, the Adv Option window where we can make JSON edits seems to behave a bit differently than before. Specifically, there seems to be some background polling which triggers periodic auto-formatting of the JSON string, while you are still in the window. This could happen while you are in the middle of editing the JSON and your cursor will get reset back to the top of the editor window.

I imagine this was introduced with good intention to prevent invalid JSON objects to be created (previously if the JSON object was invalid and you closed out of the editor window, all your changes would be lost). However, it would be nice to have a toggle in the Adv Option editor or some global parameter to turn this auto-checking/formatting OFF to prevent the aforementioned situation. Thanks!
