Known issues

• For some captions workarounds will be required. Two of them are for example the captions | and = which would require you to insert {{!}} or {{=}} instead of | or =, since using a "|" or "=" inside a template will break it.

• If a line breaks right before the template the leftmost key border stays on that line.
