Description
Currently, the blockquote styles on the single plugin page are almost invisible. Here's what they are currently:
blockquote {
background: transparent;
border: none;
padding: 0;
border-left: 2px solid #eee;
color: #82878c;
font-style: italic;
margin: 16px 0;
margin: 1rem 0;
padding-left: 16px;
padding-left: 1rem;
}
I'd like to suggest this instead:
blockquote {
background: #eee;
border: none;
color: #82878c;
font-style: italic;
margin: 16px 0;
margin: 1rem 0;
padding: 10px 40px;
}

Thanks @ketuchetan -- I actually realized I didn't follow the standard padding sizing that the current styles employ. If possible, can you update your patch to this?
blockquote {
background: #eee;
border: none;
color: #82878c;
font-style: italic;
margin: 16px 0;
margin: 1rem 0;
padding: 10px 40px;
padding: 0.6em 2.5em;
}
It's just adding that second padding rule.

I don't think blockquote should be italic. Blockquote can have nested HTML, including <em>, which would be indistinguishable. I favor an indent, but not a background color change. After all, blockquote is for quoting an external source, not making something stand out.
