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!
