Comment (by ben.greeley):

 With Gutenberg now being used across the support forums, it seems the
 right approach for this ticket would be to enable markdown via the 'Blocks
 Everywhere' plugin.

 I opened a https://wordpress.org/support/topic/markdown-support-4/ in
 their support forum to see how this might be achieved.

 If we don't want to support markdown at all (which was a previous
 suggestion in this thread), let's close this one again. In my humble
 opinion, Gutenberg's markdown implementation is pretty solid, but if users
 might be confused with content automatically being converted by the
 editor, it may not be worth it.
