While putting a markdown quote in a table renders in the preview without breaking...
...it fails in the actual post:
this|is|a|table
-|-|-|-
> markdown quote | > another quote | > quote 3 | > 4
| this | is | a | table |
|---|
markdown quote | > another quote | > quote 3 | > 4
While this is an edge case, it would be nice if the preview matched the real rendering.
Update
As pointed out by @HamVocke♦ in a comment below, as long as you add pipes | to the outer edges of the table row containing the leading > character, it should render without breaking.
Example:
|this|is|a|table|
|-|-|-|-|
|> markdown quote | > another quote | > quote 3 | > 4|
| this | is | a | table |
|---|---|---|---|
| > markdown quote | > another quote | > quote 3 | > 4 |
