I know KaTeX was already supported (Thanks for that!) but yeah the ```math
business was a bit surprising. I'm not a gitlab expert but for the most
part they seem to have gone with feature parity with other products, and
having their own version of markdown was a bit of a head scratcher; no idea
why they decided to implement that.
I have no idea what kind of work is involved with getting this implemented;
I would be happy to test; or I can make an attempt at a pull request based
on existing markdown flavors.
Thanks again for developing an awesome product!
