how best would one turn on downlit autolinking for GitHub READMEs?

(and how would this clash with pkgdown using README.md)

We'd need a new document format like hugodown::md_document() that only did the autolinking piece (I looked into the highlighting too but github strips all html tags that we could use to change the colours). It shouldn't affect pkgdown, because it's only supposed to link <code> tags that contain only text (although I don't know if that's ever been tested).

If reprex used that format too (for GitHub as a venue), it'd probably help increase page rank of pkgdown websites by adding more links to them in issues?
