Just wondering if we should render markdown to html here, or rather in the pretalx export. Here is probably fine, but it would mean apps might render them a bit different.

Maybe better in the pretalx export, or at least being consistent with everything being markdown. There's currently a bit of a mix with abstracts as markdown and biographies as html

Adding to the complexity, the preview renderer of pretalx uses javascript, which may give slightly different results. But this may have been solved upstream, I should check what the state is.
