Feature request: markdown formatting

As already mentioned in these old posts:

• wiki-what-is-the-best-process-for-cleaning-up-text-in-a-wiki-page
• add-a-markup-editor-to-the-wiki

Nearly everywhere I have always been using smallcoding languages like BBCode, MediaWiki, LaTeX and HTML. When I started working with the FogBugz wiki I had loads of problems with the editor: It didn't have some options (e.g. <hr /> ) in the WYSIWYG, the HTML editor slowed me down much more then a MediaWiki editor would for the same formatting and the self-generated HTML was often messy and tough to fix when pasting text from elsewhere (example: it treats it as one paragraph, applying styles in WYSIWYG to the whole block).

My request/quesion now is "Is there any other way of using another editor, for example as an option or plugin." If not, I would like to suggest this feature.

Answer 1

There is a spot on the roadmap for adding a Markdown editor to the wiki and/or to cases. Since the wiki has recently gotten a lot of attention, it might be some time before we turn our attention to this.

Answer 2

I don't think it can be called a wiki without either markdown or mediawiki syntax, make it an option and allow us to ditch the javascript editor.
