Thank you, 1P_SimonH.
If a fuller support of Markdown is challenging, then the one most significant missing item is `code` for a fixed-width typeface. This should be the simplest to implement.
This is made more challenging by the editor offering "Preformatted" in the drop-down for new posts (and only for paragraph style), but offering only a minimal subset of the formatting toolbar for replies where Markdown and shortcuts offer different subsets of features.

Apparently it is impossible to effectively use markdown while in the WYSI(n't)WYG editor unless each is typed followed by a newline which starts a new paragraph, except for changing style and weight.
