I'm thinking about reverting the magnifier feature completely (#2026) in v11 with all related changes, too many regressions, bugs, and workarounds (#2376, #2153, #2128, #2124, #2049, #2391, #2401), it made changes to many parts of the API, removed an assert check to dodge issues, not implemented cleanly.

If someone faces the same issue, a workaround could be to add magnifierConfiguration: const TextMagnifierConfiguration(), to the QuillEditorConfigurations.

I have many users enjoying this feature - but have a couple dozen or so stuck magnifier complaints as well. I took a look at the code and there are a couple of paths where the selectionOverlay is dismissed via a call to hide() that takes care of the toolbar menu but not the magnifier. When hide() is called directly, not in the regular disposal path, the selectionOverlay is removed before the call to remove the magnifier. In those cases, the magnifier will be left floating on the screen.

We're testing a branch of 10.8.5 now with a simple fix for this. Try out the following override:
