This is an interesting comment, my work flow is almost completely different. I wonder if it's a difference based on what language we both spend the majority of our time in (for me Javascript, python, ruby).

* For markdown I prefer the synatx highlighting and scrollbars that show up on github to the giant blobs plain text gives you.

* I rarely want to attach binary files while I often find myself embedding inline images to illustrate a point

* I use cat test | gist -c -f test.txt -d "Output from failure" (it puts the gist link in my clipboard).

Majority of my bugreports are related to C/C++ and to some extent OCaml, and mostly command-line programs. Hence a text-based entry for the bugreport is more convenient.
