Show revisions both in source, and rendered.
My Rationale
When I posted comments/thread/11196#comment-27732, I wanted to link to a rendered version of the revision, in order to demonstrate the new version of the post.
Certainly, I could just inform the user to view the current revision, but that might change between me posting my comment, and them viewing it. (Who doesn't deal with some notifications a few months late?)
More generically, when viewing a revision, not needing to paste it into an external Markdown renderer is convenient. I can't provide examples anymore, but I know that I've wanted it a few times.
If none of that convinces you:
-
Stack Exchange provides this! 😊

This would mitigate
