Also, constant freezing when "Toggle icon in links" is switched on. Along with #566, iconize has become completely unusable

I don't think that #566 is related to this issue. The official version of Obsidian >1.7 is not released yet. Therefore, I am unable to patch anything.

No worries, In my quest for minimalism I've decided to trim back on plugin use. Thanks

This is a particularly annoying bug for me. I'm implementing this workaround, so the app at least doesn't freeze forever in this callback:

--- a/.obsidian/plugins/obsidian-icon-folder/main.js
+++ b/.obsidian/plugins/obsidian-icon-folder/main.js
@@ -5495,6 +5495,7 @@ const createTreeWalker = (plugin, root) => {
 const checkForTextNodes = (treeWalker, match, cb) => {
     let currentNode = treeWalker.currentNode;
     while (currentNode) {
+        if (currentNode.textContent == "™") break; // #574
         if (currentNode.nodeType === Node.TEXT_NODE) {
             const text = currentNode;
             const textNodes = [...Array.from(text.parentElement.childNodes)].filter((n) => n instanceof Text);

It seems like treewalker.nextNode() is returning the current node when the TM unicode character is used, so that the while loop condition never becomes false. When I try to run treewalker.nextNode() from the inspector while breakpointed in the function, I got some exception about the callback no longer being valid, so idk what's going on there.

This is still present and works with multiple unicode special symbols such as ™ and ©. I suspect either Iconize or Obsidian itself is doing some sort of conversion of the text automatically to map :copyright: / :trademark: to their corresponding code points and vice-versa. When opening the file in another editor, neovim in my case, the unicode symbol is present in the underlying file.
