Can't turn off code highlighting in <xmp> elements #2295

I'm looking for a way to turn off syntax highlighting inside one specific <xmp> element. (They're highlighted as C++ by default, which is great, except for this one block, which I want to be plain text.) Things I've tried:

<xmp no-highlight>
$ bin/ubench --benchmark_display_aggregates_only=true --benchmark_repetitions=5 | grep mean
</xmp>

<xmp nohighlight>
$ bin/ubench --benchmark_display_aggregates_only=true --benchmark_repetitions=5 | grep mean
</xmp>

<xmp class="nohighlight">
$ bin/ubench --benchmark_display_aggregates_only=true --benchmark_repetitions=5 | grep mean
</xmp>

<xmp class="no-highlight">
$ bin/ubench --benchmark_display_aggregates_only=true --benchmark_repetitions=5 | grep mean
</xmp>

<div class="nohighlight"><xmp>
$ bin/ubench --benchmark_display_aggregates_only=true --benchmark_repetitions=5 | grep mean
</xmp></div>

My problem is that the rendered HTML invariably does

<pre class="highlight"><c- n>$</c-> <c- n>bin</c->[...]

and if I use <xmp class="nohighlight">, well, that just produces

<pre class="nohighlight highlight"><c- n>$</c-> <c- n>bin</c->[...]

Also, the current documentation inconsistently mentions both no-highlight and nohighlight, exactly once each, so I have no way to tell which is correct even if I understood how to use them.
