Both the commented-out code and its description are from a previous version of 
markup; you can see that the syntax is slightly different from what we have in 
JEP today. It's good that you asked this question, because this piece is 
outdated.

Although the markup syntax has changed, the idea for the test remained: there 
has to be a way to produce a snippet that showcases markup. I will have to 
implement that idea.
