My suggested format would be to include the original Markdown-esque source code in any generated Utext: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38104034 So if copy-paste of the fancy Unicode version doesn't work well (just as it usually doesn't work well for the most common document file formats like HTML, PDF, images, SVG, Flash, JS...), you can copy-paste the original text from the source code.
