Hello
I would like to see changes in the comment section. Presently, we cannot start a new line. Everything gets posted in one line. Even the code looks horrible.
Also, to color the code in comments.

There is limited Markdown allowed in the comments.
You can create bold using the **[text]**
You can create italic using the *[text]*
You can do inline code using the backticks "`" on either side of the text.
please.. allow carriage returns in comments.. many times the answer is a piece of code.. the backtick is OK but spaces are merged and carriage returns are stripped.
I'd like to see the [Foobar](http://www.example.com)
URL markdown in comments.
What about links that provide readable text instead of a long URL? Markdown has support for this.
See what I just did there? Now can we do that in comments?
The original request has 'status-declined' but was asking for coloring and such. That might be overkill, but line breaks really should be supported.
