I'm not quite sure I understand the problem here -- if you have a buffer
in markdown-mode (that's set these properties), why would you change to
fundamental-mode?
And I think this is correct behaviour -- if you've switched to
fundamental-mode, then you don't want these remnants from markdown-mode
to survive, I think?

Yes, I don't think we have any mechanism that says "this buffer-local
value should survive if you change major mode, but only this one". And
I think that's probably a good idea, because it sounds like a confusing
interface.
