Can BBCode translation be disabled inside a code block?

[PeterDonis]

In a recent thread in the computer forum, a member posted Python code that was inadvertently changed by something in the posting process. @Mark44 suggested that it could be BBCode translation (a lower case i inside brackets, [i], which was an array reference in the code, got changed to an upper case I, and [I] is BBcode for starting an italics block). The Python code was inside a [CODE] block; would it be possible to disable BBCode translation inside code blocks?

@Mark44's post in the thread in question is here:

I was always under impression BBCode IS ignored in the code blocks and - at least when I post from my computer - that seems to be the case.

Could be it gets processed when the post is edited or dealt with in some specific way.

I've seen this happen where a bracketed i gets treated as a BBCode italics start tag. I can't reproduce this now for some reason.
