Markdown incorrect styling in editor

[KamasamaK]

• VSCode Version: 1.19.1

In Markdown files, the editor is incorrectly styling every other inner word surrounded by underscores as italicized. The preview correctly shows them as not italicized.

I think this is what Text Mate grammars' behavior. Tried in TextMate 2.0 (latest), same there.

I think KamasamaK is right on this. The editor has an error as it interprets the other word as if it was a separate word starting and finishing with _ (that would be italized).
It is correctly displayed on Github editor : MULTIPLE_WORDS_SEPARATED_BY_UNDERSCORE

I created a PR to fix this #41466
