I'm sure Staff will be able to implement a simple Markdown parser for Discussions to cover the lack of bold, italics, underline, etc. but implementing the whole MediaWiki parser into Discussions sounds like something that's less needed than easy to implement. Looking at the current Discussions users, most of them wouldn't be using complex things like templates in Discussions.
