1559617 - Bug filer should do markdown-escaping

Status: NEW

Description

[Kartikaya Gupta (email:[e-mail])]

See e.g. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1559570#c0 - random parts of that comment are italicized because the underscores in the log get treated as markdown special characters. The log part of that comment should be properly escaped with triple backticks.

Is that comment always going to be a log? I don't think we'd want to escape out everything that's in the comment field. Otherwise you can't do any markdown styling yourself.

Perhaps if log lines are pasted in, you could place the backticks yourself? Otherwise maybe we need a "loglines" section in the dialog that does it for you.
