You can change [peg-markdown] to behave the way you want (without
problems in code blocks) just by adding one line:

--- a/markdown_parser.leg
+++ b/markdown_parser.leg
@@ -384,6 +384,7 @@ Entity =    ( HexEntity | DecEntity | CharEntity )
             { $$ = mk_str(yytext); $$->key = HTML; }
 
 Endline =   TerminalEndline | NormalEndline
+            { $$ = mk_element(LINEBREAK); }
