RStudio does NOT display image when caption has citation

RMarkdown supports the following syntax for images:

![This is the caption](/url/of/image.png)

Also, RMarkdown supports the following syntax for citation:

Blah blah [@smith04; @doe99].

We can combine the two and

![Blah blah [@smith04; @doe99].](/url/of/image.png)

is valid.

RStudio will inject/display the image for

![This is the caption](/url/of/image.png)

but it will not for

![Blah blah [@smith04; @doe99].](/url/of/image.png)

The next video illustrates this bug. RStudio will inject the image after complete the syntax for the image and the image will be removed when the citation is added.
