This is part of the CommonMark spec

\*\*test\*\*

```plaintext
<p> **test** </p>

```

Absolutely do not want to deviate from the spec here. I guess we fix pull hotlink images to allow for this by injecting 2 newlines for cases like this. I think it is rather rare though and sort of self inflicted.
