Thank you, Patrick. 

I did as you instructed, but it still doesn't work. I quit and restarted 
QS, thinking it would help, but no. Do I have to force QS to somehow reload 
the plugin?

I have many apps that treat .md files special. Not in rendering, but they 
do use syntax highlighting and rely on the extension to do that. 
Specifically I am thinking of Byword, but there are others (TextMate, etc). 
So renaming to a .md.txt extension isn't practical for me.
