I can't think of a case where it could lead to confusion, so I'd say it
can go in master, at least until someone complains, if ever.

BTW, as a reminder, I'm all for thinking again how emphasis/verbatim
markup is defined in Org but I doubt changing it by small touches will
do any good. IMO, it needs to be discussed as a whole.

I think a good markup should
  - not need to be customizable,
  - allow any number of (non-consecutive) newline characters,
  - allow escaping markup in verbatim objects.

For example, much like radio links, bold object could be defined as

  1. anything but an alphanumeric character (including nothing),
  2. / character,
  3. an alphanumeric character,
  4. anything excepted 2 or more consecutive newline characters
     (non-greedy),
  5. an alphanumeric character,
  6. / character,
  7. anything but an alphanumeric character (including nothing).

For simplicity, I ignore the special case /a/ for the moment.

The verbatim would be the same, with a slight change in 4th element:

  4. the same, with \= treated as =
