--- Comment #2 from Buovjaga <[email protected]> ---
While researching prior discussions, I found bug 94954 which did not involve
any discussion.

This would require changes to the ODF standard to preserve such programming
language metadata.

LibreOffice is not a code editor nor a Markdown editor, though. So if we stick
to these principles, it would be a strange experience for the user to edit a
highlighted block of code only for it to lose its highlighting in the edited
parts. Dynamic highlighting was rejected in requests like bug 160362.

Terms like "round-trip fidelity" in association with Markdown seem ill-fitting
as Markdown is not really trying to be a proper document format, but just a
helper for formatting. It is famously "underdefined". See, for example
