Does Bugzilla support any markup language?
Maybe I'm just blind, but I can't find documentation about how to format text in Bugzilla. Does Bugzilla support Markdown, Textile or some sort of markup language out of the box?
-- EDIT --
Half interesting news: there is an open P3 enhancement [1] for adding optional support for Markdown [2] and it is possible to voteup. Though i开发者_StackOverflowt doesn't seem there is too much enthusiasm around it.

Edit: Bugzilla 6.0 will include optional markdown support; it was implemented as a GSoC project in the bug linked in the question. Docs.
Before 6.0, the only thing it supports is the >
prefix on lines, which makes them purple and not wrap.
At this moment, Markdown formatting is supported on https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ based on my own testing just now. There's a small link that says "Markdown styling now supported"
However, Mozilla's bugzilla instance appears to be running one of several Markdown Bugzilla extensions listed on GitHub, since Markdown doesn't seem to be mentioned in the bugzilla code repository.
As for version history, bugzilla.mozilla.org links to documentation indicating they are running Bugzilla 4.2. Markdown was introduced in the Bugzilla 4.5.6 development snapshot, but reverted from 5.0. Then, Markdown support was included in the Bugzilla 5.1.2 documentation.
I can't find current plans. There was discussion here without clarity about what happened:
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=330707
- https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:Markdown
Conclusion
Any given Bugzilla installation may or may not support Markdown right now, but Markdown was designed to be readable, so go ahead and use it. It seems likely it will be rendered as HTML in the near future even if it isn't right now.
