[#37294] - [4.1] TinyMCE - entering source code not possible

- # 37294
I got an E-mail from a blind user:
[..] with the latest update to version 4.1.0 and the addition of the Source Code Plus option, I can no longer edit the source code of an article.
[..]
I'm not sure if this is Joomla itself or an update with the Tiny MCE Editor but, now that it is using an iFrame it is unusable.
Upon entering the iFrame, I seem to be presented with an editable field along with a read only list of the source code. Therefore I can not edit a line of code or insert HTML into the source code anymore.
[..]
Thank you. I was wondering as I cannot find an iframe for TinyMCE source code.
The code is located https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/tree/4.1-dev/build/media_source/plg_editors_tinymce/js/plugins/highlighter
And when built it lives in media/plg_editors_tinymce/js/plugins/highlighter

J4 Issue

It is with screen reader. Unfortunately I have no clue how this works or how it worked before J4. I am very impressed by this letter and hope that we get much feedback from users.
She wrote:
[..] Joomla has on the whole been accessible to myself using Apple's Voiceover component with the screen reader function.
I have taught myself a great deal using Joomla over the past 6 years and I am very grateful to the entire team for making this possible. I have constructed a number of sites using both Joomla 3.x and now 4.x but
... continues as in my first post.
Will try to get more info, and thanks for investigating
It seemed ok to me on windows with narrator but there are so many variables in play. browser, os, screenreader etc
I tried myself to swithc off the highlighting. In the tinyMCE plugin set the parameter "Source Code Highlighting" OFF.
But this has no effect. The output highlighted.

@richard67 the PR only solves the bug for the switch, the a11y part of this issue is still under investigation
@dgrammatiko Does your PR solve the issue completely? Or only partly?

Ah you were faster. Yes, I just noticed.
Thanks for the first part!
Is there any more feedback on what needs to be done?

Closing this as #37298 solved the problem.
Got a response right now:
_All your hard work has paid off and the Source Code is now editable again using Apple Voiceover, it functions exactly as it used to. I can access the source code on an article and perform the required tasks.
This is wonderful news and I am so very grateful to yourself and all those who work so hard at keeping Joomla working so smoothly._
