Bold and italic template values are not bolded or italicized
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

Codemirror wikitext highlighting correctly makes bolded text appear bold and italic text appear italicized, except in template values.

Screenshot of the issue below:

As seen in the screenshot above, anchors and tags in template values get highlighted as they would elsewhere, but bold and italic do not.

@MusikAnimal Hi! Do you have a sense for how hard this would be to fix? Saw you in the commit history of the file in the comment above :)

Hi @Mhurd. We are no longer actively working on CodeMirror and won't be able to prioritize this. To the best of my knowledge, we tried to do this at some point but it was not as straightforward as we thought.

@Pastakhov Do you recall why we didn't do this?
