Release highlights

We are happy to announce the release of CKEditor 5 v30.0.0.

This release introduces the following new features:

• Allow reverting text transformations by pressing Backspace.
• Cut down the search time in the Find & replace feature.

There were also a few bug fixes:

• Fixed invalid cell property after pasting a table to the editor from Word.
• The table toolbar now respects the viewportTopOffset configuration.
• Automatic text transformation: the dates get no longer turn into fractions.
• The toolbar no longer loses focus after escaping from the find and replace dropdown.

MAJOR BREAKING CHANGES ℹ️

• The config.toolbar.viewportTopOffset property was moved to config.ui.viewportOffset and it now accepts an object.

MINOR BREAKING CHANGES ℹ️

• engine: The Matcher class is more strict in handling Elements provided to the match() and matchAll() methods. It will not accept other Nodes now.
• html-support: The public helper function html-support/converters~disallowedAttributesConverter has been removed due to a change in the approach to filtering disallowed elements and attributes.
• widget: The centeredBalloonPositionForLongWidgets() helper was removed from widget utils. Use BalloonPanelView.defaultPositions.viewportStickyNorth instead. See #9892.
• widget: toWidgetEditable() will now set highlight handling for the editable element. If you used this method in conversion in your custom plugin it may affect your element styling when there is a marker on that element (e.g. a comment or a suggestion).

Additionally, the config.toolbar.viewportTopOffset property was moved to config.ui.viewportOffset and it now accepts an object. Closes #9672. (commit)
