Seems wrong by design to me.  They even mention it themselves (at
http://alexgorbatchev.com/SyntaxHighlighter/manual/installation.html)
If you want the code to be shown instead of interpreted, you must do
all the escaping yourself, and then still rss readers will not apply
the hilighting ("<pre> method").  The alternative "<script>" method
allows you to not escape the html yourself, but will break horribly
without support for js (i.e. in rss readers)

Thanks, although I don't use markdown (nor RST), your plugin seems
simple enough to try using as a starting point.
Although i still don't get why my own plugin doesn't affect the text..
really weird..
