Description
Bug description
In 1.3, I could include a {{< kbd ... >}} within the _variables.yml file and use {{< var ... >}} with it. Now, in both 1.4 and 1.5, it doesn't work as previously.
Steps to reproduce
Create a new simple Quarto Project with RStudio.
In the index.qmd file, include:
---
title: "test"
---
{{< var test >}}
{{< kbd mac=Cmd-Shift-P win=Ctrl-Shift-P linux=Ctrl-Shift-P >}}
In the _variables.yml file, include:
test: '{{< kbd mac=Cmd-Shift-P win=Ctrl-Shift-P linux=Ctrl-Shift-P >}}'
And render it.
Expected behavior
It should print something like Ctrl-Shift-P twice (in this example).
Actual behavior
Instead it looks like:
mac=Cmd-Shift-P
Ctrl-Shift-P
Your environment
- RStudio 2023.06
- Quarto 1.5 (and tried on 1.4 as well)
- Ubuntu 22.04

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with the provided index.qmd and _variables.yml examples using Quarto 1.4 or 1.5, then compare the rendered variable and direct kbd output. Done means the variable renders the same platform-specific shortcut as the direct kbd usage, such as Ctrl-Shift-P, without exposing the mac= value.
