Please let us use literal less-than signs within [code] and have them display as if they were any other text. Apparently < and > do not work, and when using < and >, these do not get reconverted when editing posted posts. I don't see that proper handling of this could allow for HTML injection.

Easier said than done, more trouble than it's worth, huh?

They don't get reconverted to < and > when editing posts, but I guess that isn't something everyone does.
