If I send a message from my Matrix client to an IRC user or channel with formatting like:
bolditalicsstrikethroughcode block
...what IRC users will see is:
*bold* _italics_ \~strikethough\~ "code block"
Given that IRC supports these four types of formatting using formatting characters I think heisenbridge should make use of these so that IRC users see the correct formatting on their end. (It apparently already does the reverse of this for Matrix users receiving formatted IRC messages.)
