In markdown syntax, none of the other special characters get processed inside a code block. However, in ikiwiki, [[wiki links|wikilink]] and [[preprocessor directives|preprocessordirective]] still get processed inside a code block, requiring additional escaping. For example, [links don't work](#here)
, but a <a href="../wikilink.html">wikilink</a> becomes HTML

Indented lines provide a good way to escape a block of text containing markdown syntax, but ikiwiki links like [[this]] are still interpreted within such a block. I think that intepretation should not be happening. That is I should be able to write:
this
and have it render like:
[[this]]
