Markdown cells not correctly detected and treated as SQL on opening a file

[CatalyseRichard]

When an existing file is opened the markdown cells are not reliably identified as markdown. Some open OK but others, particularly those containing tables and/or lists (OL and UL), open as 2 SQL cells. The first cell contains the markdown text preceded by the */markdown tag. The closing */ tag appearing in a following 2nd SQL cell. Once the cells are merged thercell type detection may recognise the correct type and there may be a suggestion to change cell type to markdown. This does not always happen and manual scrutiny and change is often required.
