1364519 - Markdown re-enabled after unchecking "Enable Markdown", escaping gets messed up

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(MozReview Graveyard :: Review Board: User Interface, enhancement)

Description

[Botond Ballo [:botond]]

STR:
  1. Write a review comment with the contents

       template <typename T>
       A[B]

     (The first line is to motivate disabling markdown.
      The second line triggers the bug.)

  2. Uncheck "Enable Markdown" and save the comment.

  3. Click on the comment again. The "Enable Markdown"
     checkbox is checked again, and the contents of the
     comment textbox are now:

       template <typename T>
       A\[B\]

  4. Uncheck "Enable Markdown" again (say you want to
     add more to the comment) and Save.

  5. Click on the comment again. Once again, "Enable
     Markdown" is checked, and the textbox now reads:

       template <typename T>
       A\\\[B\\\]

For bonus fun, continue doing this and watch the number of backslashes grow exponentially :)
