Improve Domino Leap support for Rich Text fields in Notes databases with "Don't allow URL Open"

Domino Leap should fully support Rich Text fields from existing Notes applications, even when the source database has the "Don't allow URL Open" property enabled.

Currently there are two major limitations:

  1. Rich Text images cannot be displayed when documents are retrieved using the Read Document service because the generated image URLs rely on ?OpenElement, which is blocked by the database property.

  2. Existing Rich Text fields must be converted to "Store contents as HTML and MIME" to prevent runtime errors when reading documents. Requiring customers to migrate existing data is time-consuming and makes application modernization much more difficult.

Many organizations intentionally enable "Don't allow URL Open" for security reasons. Since Domino Leap is designed to modernize existing Notes applications, it should be able to handle these common scenarios without requiring changes to existing data or database security settings.

Supporting Rich Text content, including embedded images, in secure Notes databases would significantly improve Domino Leap as an application modernization platform.
