Markdown to RST conversion.

Markdown to RST conversion.

I'm having trouble understanding the conversion from markdown to rst.

I start with this in the markdown file:

---
title: Made with Pandoc
---


:data-transition-duration: 2000\
:skip-help: true

And  I want to get the following in restructured text:

================
Made with Pandoc
================


:data-transition-duration: 2000
:skip-help: true


Instead, I get this:

================
Made with Pandoc
================

| :data-transition-duration: 2000
| :skip-help: true


I thought if I backslash-escaped the colons and then added the 
"all_symbols_escapable" extension to the markdown reader, that would solve 
the issue. However, I get the same output. Does anyone have suggestions?

The RST reader parses field lists as definition lists.

However, the RST writer will just turn definition lists
into RST definition lists.

So, I don't see a good solution here other than using a
filter and putting the field list in a specially marked
code block.
