Poll: do you want inline code formatting on HN?

When discussing code on HN, I often refer to functions and variables by name. When those names happen to be lowercased English words, I end up with unfortunate garden path sentences like, "I don't see a need for loops can't address".

I wish I could format the foregoing "for" as code — e.g., by enclosing it in backticks like I would in Markdown. I often settle for italics, but those are overloaded on HN by commenters who use them gratuitously for emphasis.

Would you find inline code formatting useful? If many people would, I'll comment in the Feature Requests thread and refer to this poll.
