Author has some in-progress work to put section headers buttons in the toolbar, 
nice :)

State types are mostly set starting here 
https://github.com/codemirror/CodeMirror/blob/master/mode/markdown/markdown.js#L54
  "comment" actually means "code"

\``` blocks can be controlled with option `fencedCodeBlocks` in markdown.js but 
we don't have a way to pass that in right now.  We'd need to change `mode` in 
simplemde.js from a simple string to `{name: "gfm", fencedCodeBlocks: false}`  
And gfm.js will pass it through to markdown.js config.  [General config 
docs](http://codemirror.net/doc/manual.html#option_mode))  Or to keep it but 
change from \``` to `~~~~` would require forking markdown.js and changing \``` 
in just a few places, might be actually not bad **if** we decide to do a custom 
build of simplemde and codemirror.

I am working on a button to support just single \` inline formatting.  I think 
it should be possible.

** [tickets:#7955] Add more formatting support to markdown editor**

**Status:** open
**Milestone:** unreleased
**Labels:** ux sf-current sf-4 
**Created:** Mon Aug 10, 2015 02:39 PM UTC by Dave Brondsema

It'd be nice to add more toolbar buttons to support inserting formatting like:

* `~~~~` code blocks
* strikethrough
* backticks
* tables
* headers

Tables & headers might need a drop-down to support choosing which one, so not 
sure if that is realistic.

Syntax highlighting of those elements (especially our code blocks) would be 
nice too, but perhaps a lot of work?

See if we can include tooltip text on the new buttons too.  I note that our 
custom preview and help buttons don't have tooltips.
