Hmmm. Why not.

Markdown include characters/sequences which are interpreted as markers:
_Italic_, **Bold**, *** => horizontal rules, > block quote... `inline
code`... If they are interpreted within a table cell then probably they
should be escaped somehow.

I already did in the first mail with the example output copy pasted from
psql. Some characters are pipe and others are BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT VERTICAL
characters.
Maybe this is because I have in my ~/.psqlrc:
\pset linestyle unicode
\pset border 2
in which case your reuse of the the aligned stuff should take care of the
border setting to avoid using special UTF8 characters..
