If there is "<" in code, it will be converted to "&lt"

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Markdown.Converter 

for example

There is Golang code：

   select {
   case <-channel:
   }

will be converted to：

   select {
   case &lt;channel:
   }

Of course it is. What's the issue with that? If we didn't do that, HTML tags in 
code blocks would be interpreted by the browser, which is obviously not what we 
intend.

• Changed state: Invalid

But this is golang code

select {
   case <-channel:
}

If it was changed to 
select {
   case <channel:
}

it is not friendly。

The point of Markdown is to create HTML. And a browser sees <, it displays <. 
That's absolutely correct.
