syntax highlighting
 
   
  
 
 
http://pygments.org/ supports quite a few. Would it be possible for Askbot to take advantage of this?

Actually, askbot has syntax highlighting - google-code-prettify, written in javascript.
 
It works well imo, and because it runs on the client - works in the previews as well.

Well, it works with code using the Markdown 4 spaces prefix. But it doesn't work with Mardown ``` syntax.
