Description

When the source project defines a custom marker that is not in the target, the marker is not recognized properly in the target when inserting pretranslations.

This is the Serval spin-off of https://github.com/sillsdev/silnlp/issues/602. Following the discussion there, maybe the best thing to do is just to strip/ignore custom markers.

Research direction

Start with the discussion in silnlp issue 602, then trace how custom markers are handled when pretranslations are inserted. Clarify whether source-only markers should be stripped or ignored, and consider the issue complete when those markers no longer prevent correct recognition in the target.
