1. We added a Google Chrome badge to indicate to the user that their selection contains unrendered Markdown. This was in response to Issue #258.
2. Implementation:

• /src/chrome/contentscript.js
  • Added setToggleButtonBadge(), integrated it into the preexisting background checks
• /src/chrome/backgroundscript.js
  • Added new request action show-toggle-button-badge to handle displaying the toggle button
• /src/common/markdown-here.js
  • Refactored common code into getMarkdownRenderObject(), created selectionContainsRenderedMarkdown()
• /src/common/options.html
  • Added fields to allow user to enable/disable the new toggle button badge
• /src/common/options.js
  • Added logic to deal with user enabling/disabling the toggle button badge
• /src/common/test/markdown-here-test.js
  • Created new test suite for our new function
