Would this be feasible to allow writing markdown in a button’s text?  
I’d like some text to be bold and I want to add new lines

> oke so add in the style: white-space: pre-wrap and then you will have to fiddle with the text input a bit untill you get this (add in a long string and lose focus): [image] then you can add in enters as you wish: [image]

with css :before{font-weight:bold; content:"text"}  
you could do something but its really not that great to work with xd
