+; Strikethrough markers in tables — tostring column width
+Strikethrough delimiters (`~~text~~`) are concealed by the renderer, so the
+column-width calculation in `renderers/markdown/tostring.lua` must strip them
+too. If it doesn't, each `~~` pair adds 2 characters (4 per `~~text~~` span) to
+the computed width, so the calculated width is larger than what is drawn and the
+right border drifts to the right.
+Open this file and check that every right border lines up. The strikethrough
+rows should align exactly with the plain control rows below them.
+### Single strikethrough span
+| Case                     | Example              |
+|--------------------------|----------------------|
+| Strikethrough word       | ~~gone~~ text        |
+| Strikethrough phrase     | ~~all of this~~ here |
+| Plain (control, same len)| xxxxxxx text         |
+| Plain (control)          | just normal text     |
+### Multiple spans in one cell
+| Case                    | Example                    |
+|-------------------------|----------------------------|
+| Two spans               | ~~one~~ and ~~two~~ done   |
+| Span at end of cell     | keep ~~this dropped~~      |
+| Plain (control)         | one     and two     done   |
+### Strikethrough mixed with other emphasis
+| Case                       | Example                  |
+|----------------------------|--------------------------|
+| Strike + bold             | ~~old~~ **new**          |
+| Strike + italic           | ~~old~~ *new*            |
+| Strike + code             | ~~old~~ `new()`          |
+| Plain (control)           | old     new              |
+### Escaped tildes stay literal (not strikethrough)
+| Case                  | Example            |
+|-----------------------|--------------------|
+| Escaped tilde pair    | a \~\~literal\~\~ b |
+| Single tilde (approx) | about ~5 items     |
+| Plain (control)       | just normal text   |
