Thank you so much for the work @jonathan-gibbons and @lahodaj (for the jshell part).

I can see the need for an universal solution allow to handle both Markdown and ASCIIDoc. However, offering Markdown would be a huge improvement compared to the existing solution (having to use HTML and IDE support took a long time to fix "trivial" things - e.g., proper HTML reformat https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-147601).
