Description
See the screenshot. If you append markdown formatted text with … after the closing formatting indicator, the formatting isn't parsed and shown in Keybase chat.
Examples: *this*… and _this_…
Clarification, just in case: this is actually an ellipsis character. On a Mac, it's typed with Option-;.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Keybase chat with the examples *this*… and _this_…, using the attached screenshot as the expected context. Trace the markdown parsing entry point and verify that formatting remains parsed when an ellipsis follows the closing indicator; done means both examples render with formatting.
