MD links inside a MD table in Markdown Widget do not generate Markdown.LinkClicked when clicked

[dontascii]

Problem

When using the Markdown widget, links inside a table are not posting Markdown.LinkClicked events when they are clicked. The links are rendered properly, just not firing Markdown.LinkClicked.

Other links inside the document but outside of a table work as expected.

Expected Outcome:

Links inside tables generate Markdown.LinkClicked events

The following App renders some markdown which includes links inside and outside of a MD table. The links in the table do not generate the LinkClicked event, so no app notification will be displayed.

from textual import on
from textual.app import App, ComposeResult
from textual.widgets import Markdown 

EXAMPLE_MARKDOWN = """
# Markdown Document

[this link works](https://www.textualize.io/)

| [this title link does not work](https://www.textualize.io/) | col1 | col2 |
|-------|------|------|
| [does this one??](https://www.textualize.io/) | i  | wonder |
| foo | bar  | textual | 
"""
class SelectApp(App):

    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:
        yield Markdown(EXAMPLE_MARKDOWN)

    @on(Markdown.LinkClicked)
    async def on_markdown_link_clicked(self, event: Markdown.LinkClicked) -> None:
        self.notify(f"on_markdown_link_clicked  - {event.href}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = SelectApp()
    app.run() 

I've tried this on my windows 11 laptop as well as Ubuntu via wsl. Here are the textual diagnose outputs for both:
