I intend to show these # characters verbatim; they should not render as Markdown headings. They also shouldn’t show up with a leading \ in the final rendered output.

#This is not an Org comment. It has a hash char at beginning of a paragraph which must be escaped just once i.e. show up as \# in Markdown.

blah # This isn’t an Org comment either

This * will be escaped just once i.e. show up as \* in Markdown.

This _ will not be escaped as it’s a solo underscore character. But the following underscore will be escaped: something_.

This \ will be escaped just once i.e. show up as \\ in Markdown.

Hash char at beginning of a continued line #like this must be escaped just once i.e. show up as \# in Markdown.

![this exclamation must be escaped just once i.e. show up as \! in Markdown]

This ! does not need to be escaped as there is no ambiguity.
