Pandoc should support inline code blocks / syntax highlighting

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Currently Pandoc supports delimited code blocks. Which work great
when you want an entire inset section of a large amount of code in whatever
language, but they don't work well inline. When writing tutorials or just
programming documents in general, being able to cite a type or function's
name, showing a small one-liner example etc. it's not appropriate to take
up an entire paragraph.

Thus, an inline analogue to the delimited blocks is needed.

That is, in MediaWiki/haskell.org terms - I know the equivalent of  in
Pandoc Markdown (~~~~~~~s), but I don't know the equivalent of  (???).

John has suggested that the syntax of this inline markup would be 

`this`{.haskell}

• Changed state: Fixed

I would test this, but I'm currently unable to compile HEAD because apparently 
my citeproc-hs is too old, and I can't fetch any recent patches because 
code.haskell.org is down.

To test, you need to compile pandoc-types from github, then recompile citeproc 
from darcs, then install pandoc.
Or you can just wait for the release.
