ISTM that if ever a newsreader will be written that supports syntax 
highlighting out-of-the-box, it is more likely to support (GitHub-flavored) 
Markdown’s indentation to produce monospaced texts than (GitHub-flavored) 
Markdown’s backticks, because it is much easier to parse and there is less 
potential for false positives. (If I would write one, I would seek to 
support that; not necessarily requiring 4 leading spaces, though.)
