MarkdownParser get original Markdown from MarkdownElement or MarkdownBlock #2729
Description
I'm submitting a...
- Feature request (UserVoice request: )
Current behavior
MarkdownBlock returns only sanitized text from the orignial markdown or .net default behaivour on calling ToString().
Expected behavior
MarkdownBlock should have a property similar to
public String OrignalMarkdown { get; }
which returns the original markdown passed to ParagraphBlock.Parse.
Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions
Parse a markdown document and call .ToString() on any MarkdownBlock.
MarkdownDocument markdownDocument = new MarkdownDocument();
markdownDocument.Parse("## I'm a Header\r\nI'm a simple Text");
foreach(var item in markdownDocument.Blocks)
{
//returns only sanitzed text
Debug.WriteLine(item.ToString());
}
