[Enhancement] Support parsing of multi-line highlights in Markdown importer

The current Markdown importer is unable to correctly parse highlights that contain line breaks. While single-line highlights import without issue, any highlight spanning multiple lines is either ignored, broken into separate fragmented highlights, or causes the import to fail.

This is a significant blocker for users working with complex data. For example, my use case involves language learning where a single "highlight" consists of three distinct lines:

  1. The target language text

  2. The phonetic pronunciation

  3. The translation

Personally, I have a dataset of over 1,700 highlights. Because a large portion of these are multi-line, manual entry or manual correction is not a feasible workaround.

    @Pedro @ Screvi any thoughts on this? Seems like it would be fairly simple implementation to expand which lines the parser identifies?

      Hmm, could you send an example of how it looks? to main@screvi.com.
