All textareas take markdown input, but if you don't realize that and just type or paste something (e.g. code sample, log file) then certain chars may convert into markdown syntax and not render as actually intended.

A checkbox near preview & formatting help buttons could be added.  (Maybe expand to a full toolbar to help with syntax some day).  Changing the data storage for every artifact and the render calls for every artifact is a lot of work and makes the whole system a bit more complex.  If we can use markdown syntax to escape the whole content of the entry, that could work out pretty well I think.

Requested via [forge:feature-requests:#134] and [forge:site-support:#3470]
