Description

See discussion and example in https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-cli/issues/1581

In short, some knitr option could be useful with other computation engine and this require broader Quarto support

This could maybe even be done using Lua filter in an extension (TBC)

Research direction

Start by reading the discussion and example in quarto-dev/quarto-cli#1581, then compare the listed knitr options with the behavior of other computation engines. Determine whether equivalent support belongs in Quarto broadly or could be provided by a Lua filter extension; done means the intended options work beyond knitr with a clearly defined scope.
