Description
Problem
Currently, Code always applies syntax highlighting based on the detected or selected language.
The only way to disable it for a given file is to manually change its language mode to “Plain Text”, but it must be done per file, every time.
For users who prefer a minimal, distraction-free interface, this is not ideal.
Personally, I’ve developed the habit of working without syntax highlighting — I find it helps me focus on code structure and readability rather than colors. While I understand this is a subjective preference, a global toggle would make Code more flexible for different workflows.
Proposal
Add a setting in Preferences as as:
[ ] Disable syntax highlighting
