Shouldn’t those render as test?.. and test!.. (i.e. three dots rather than two)?

I guess the idea is that there are indeed three dots, but one of them is part of the question mark (or exclamation mark) 😉

I did. They are using [Russian typography](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis#In_Russian) and they’re basically sending the ball back to you by answering:

Now we just need a nifty composer option to insert a table and we’ll be golden. 🙏

Makes sense. Then the composer options menu needs a tweak to fix how it inserts it.

It looks like the right align in the table is not working:
```
| Tables | Are | Cool |
|---|:---:|---:|
| col 1 is | left-aligned | $100 |
| col 2 is | centered | $52 |
| col 3 is | right-aligned | $9 |

I am now almost done with core and core plugin changes.
Only little bit left is some extra BBCode support, which I will work on tomorrow.
To celebrate I have exposed the site setting to enable CommonMark

It seems that footnotes are not working yet. ☹

It is a plugin per: [GitHub - markdown-it/markdown-it-footnote: Footnotes plugin for markdown-it markdown parser · GitHub](https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it-footnote)
After I am done fixing this BBCode stuff I am going to have to clean up existing plugins. Once that is done I will do some posts that demonstrate how to re-package plugins, it is really easy.
