conditional formatting with spans 1.3 release vs 1.4 pre-release

Description

I'm trying to follow the documentation example for conditional formatting using spans. When I do this with version 1.3.450, the information in the square brackets never appears in either pdf or html format It just says Some text . . When I use the pre-release 1.4.533 I get the expected conditional behavior.

Is this a pre-release only feature? the documentation mentions some pre-release only behavior later, but not about this topic.

My implementation of the example follows:

---
title: "quarto-conditional-content"
format:
    html: default
    pdf: default
---

Some text
[in HTML.]{.content-visible when-format="html"}
[in PDF.]{.content-visible when-format="pdf"}

It was a regression in Quarto 1.3 - so it was working with 1.2 but not 1.3 and that is solved now in 1.4

• Conditional content with spans not working in 1.3 and 1.4 #6940 (solved by Separate custom node handlers for block and inline #7083)

This is why it is documented (as part on 1.2) but not working with 1.3. Current pre-release solves it
