From real quick I got it to here. With the latest copy of the doc builds
it appears to still work as expected, but I need a section with the new
"pre" block to test.

I think the "background-color: inherit !important" is a bit odd, and
would like to trace that one down a bit more, but I did not see anything
obvious on my glance through it.
