Ack!  Of course.  Didn't see it because my actual case is a lot more
complicated.
Less-liberal list indenting would be bad, so the only solution is to
insert _something_, and an HTML comment is the most innocuous thing.
 Okay.  I get it.
I wonder if an **optional**, explicit delimiter for code blocks
would be so bad.  The four-space indent is fine, but it's not
_great_.  It sometimes feels ... fragile.
When composing email I nearly always bracket a code block with some
kind of visual line, top and bottom.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am preformatted {
    don't interpret me;
}
Everything in here is to be
taken ****literally****.

Block start, block end.  No guessing.
