Markdown support (e.g. Import .md) lacking

Have just discovered Board.Net, seeking an alternative to etherpad.wikimedia.org for collaborative editing of Markdown docs... But cannot see as how that function is supported.

Firstly, i have ticked "Show Markdown" box in the "Settings" menu, and it does not work to enable a rendered view of Markdown-formatted documents which was my initial expectation. If this is not enabled, then i wonder what that particular setting is for.

Next best thing would be to enable RTE (Round Trip Editing) of .md files... But both boards that i have created (one with, one without the aforementioned setting enabled) choke on attempted import of the several proven-valid .md files that i have tried -including the attached document- all failing with the uninformative error message "Error: Import failed."

So i would like to know: in what way, exactly, is Markdown supported by board.net? Can you suggest a good way to achieve my goal of collaborative editing of open (i.e. no privacy requirement) Markdown-format documents, with rendered preview such as offered by this Issue Tracker? Whether or not this is achievable via Board.Net, any steering would be appreciated -thanks!
