Research direction

The issue is about the Quick Look preview of Markdown files, so start by finding where the plugin's Swift source turns Markdown into displayed output. Preview a .md file containing a pipe table and confirm it shows as plain text. Done means the table appears as a real <table>-style grid in the preview, with the existing non-table Markdown unchanged.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently tables created using the Markdown table syntax are formatted as lines of text, it would be super cool to see those done tabularly!
