As a true markdown user, I want to edit description fields using markdown syntax, so that I can avoid wasting time with UI-based formatting buttons.

I would like to edit rich text fields directly using markdown syntax, so that when I save, the text will be formatted as I intended.
e.g.
# Heading 1
## Heading 2
`code snippet`
- bullet
- bullet
- bullet
| theader | tcolumn | tcol2 |
| -------- | -------- | ----- |
| tdata | tdata | tdata |
- [ ] checkbox
- [x] checked checkbox
I need to highlight these ==very important words==
I just love **bold text**
let's separate this section from the next using a horizontal rule
-------
voila!

I would also want to have keyboard shortcuts for markdown syntaxes, for example in JIRA, we can use CTRL+SHIT+M to use the CODE text format

Merged in a post:
Provide ability to enter Mark down formatting directly
Ilya Volkov
It would be useful to have an option of typing Mark down formatting into the text fields directly instead of using the UI buttons and panels.
I.e., when the following is typed into the box in the "direct mode":
heading 1
## heading 2
... this will automatically be converted into MD Headings 1 and 2 respectively.
