Surely the way to handle this is to convert an <  or  > to their 
respective html encoded strings. Those two characters arent legal in 
html ( except for designating tags ) so doing a complete convert covers 
it ( surely MD should be doing this already ). Then wrap a code around 
it to make it look pretty.
