Your last statement has described my position almost perfectly.

you think that some other necessity trumps the need for highlighting



Yes, proper copy & paste.

You either just don't see the need.



I don't see a essential need for it, although in some instances code highlighting is helpful. The biggest problem, which is why I do not want to compromise and just add [highligh_code] tag or similar is because there is no automated tools to highlight non-php code. As such, I do not want to add more code for a sake of a feature most people won't use simply because I doubt most people would spend the time to painstakingly insert FUDcode tags to highlight source code.
Every tag adds a slight slowdown in the message parsing code, so adding tags that won't be used is mostly bloat.
