Unsupported markdown syntax

The Advanced WYSIWYG editor does not currently support the following markdown syntax:

1. Tables
Markdown tables are not supported. For example, the following syntax will not render as a table:

| header | header |
| --- | --- |
| cell | cell |
| cell | cell |

2. Subscript
Subscript syntax is not supported directly in the editor. You will need to apply the subscript option manually using Format tools for it to appear correctly.

3. Superscript
Superscript syntax is also not supported directly in the editor. You will need to apply the superscript option manually using Format tools for it to appear correctly.
