Round tripping strips spaces when it strips bold or italics

[TimShererAtAquent]

Locally, I edited an .md file, doing the kind of writing we would do for a cmdlet. This is part of creating our round tripping procedures.

When I added bold or italics and then round tripped, the markup was gone, but so was the space before and after the marked word. (Using screen caps here so as not to confuse the markdown in this issue editor:)

Although it would be nice to have a way to maintain formatting through the round trip process, even if we don't do that, some contributors will use formatting anyway (since it is allowed and expected in markdown) so we can't have spaces disappearing.

What exactly do you mean by round trip?
If you are talking about Markdown -> Maml -> Markdown, then it's expected, and nothing we can do about it. Maml schema doesn't allow us store all the things we want to store (i.e. parameter set names).

But that's not the suggested workflow.

Suggested workflow is: keep source of truth in Markdown. Use Update-MarkdownHelp to update it. Generate MAML as a build step and don't store it anywhere.

There is still a problem, though. These screen caps are from my locally created maml file. The spaces are missing from the maml:
