Research direction

Reproduce the issue by opening help defaultkeys in micro 2.0.11 and checking Markdown text after an inline code span. Start by tracing the Markdown syntax-highlighting entry point; done means the surrounding text keeps its intended color after each inline code block, with a regression test covering the case.
