See https://github.com/kivikakk/comrak/issues/111 -- the string A***B*C* doesn't roundtrip correctly. It's not exactly well-formed, but ideally we should be consistent.

Research direction
Start by reading the linked comrak issue and locating cmark's emphasis and delimiter parsing behavior for A***B*C*.
