Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for all existing open AND closed issues and discussions for similar requests. I have found none that is comparable to my request.

Verify Feature Scope

  • I have read through and understood the scope definition for feature requests in the Issues section. I believe my feature request meets the definition and belongs in the Issues section instead of the Discussions.

Problem Description

The markdown parser is currently automatically adding quotation marks to block quotes globally. This creates double-quoted content that shouldn't be there.

Current Behaviour:

  • Block quote: > quote text
  • Renders as: "quote text" (with automatic quotation marks added)

Desired Behaviour:

  • Block quote: > quote text
  • Should render as: quote text not "quote text" (just the blockquote styling, no automatic quotes added)

Desired Solution you'd like

This should be a global setting that affects all block quotes across the application.

Alternatives Considered

...learning to live with double quoted block quote text.

Additional Context

Why the hell was it closed? The current way is super annoying
