Problems with combination of italic and bold

[tommoor]

Noticed that if you have italic and then bold in the same paragraph the formatting gets broken on save. Amazed I haven't seen this before. Likely because italic uses * and bold **

Interesting. I made changes to this some time ago but it was just to check for trailing/leading whitespace

[tommoor]

Ah, that probably broke it actually italic + bold = ***blah***

[jorilallo]

hmms, is that even markdown?

[tommoor]

I was thinking a quick fix would be to use the underline syntax for italic instead. However that would still fail because of the white space rule: _**blah**_

I'm not sure how valid it is technically but we probably want to allow it rather than forcing only one formatting style at a time?

[jorilallo]

I always used ** for bold and _ for italic to make it easier for myself. I think it would be ok to do that in serialization. For markdown shortcuts, I highly doubt anyone does ***, I never seen that
