I found that I can get double dollar signs with a minor change:

$$~
latex code here
~$$

A bit hacky, but \[ and \] don't work as expected, $$\n doesn't work, I can 
search and replace easily, and can't bring my self to have any text after 
my opening $$. Consistency with Pandoc would be a good thing. I'm not so 
crazy about `` as it takes some work to distinguish from ```, though I'm 
sure I could get used to it.
