I should of been clear, that comment was meant strictly about the markdown. 
 The work and evolution of BBEdit really has been great.

In all sincerity, I look at BBEdit as an editor that I can trust.  That 
means a lot.   I don't have the time for crashes and losing work.  I like 
stability and long term support. That is why I am passionate about wanting 
to use BBEdit for everything when I need to write text based stuff.  I 
think the straight up LaTeX support is great.  I look at other editors with 
their crazy color schemes or rediculous amount of extra chrome/distractions 
and I look at BBEdit and think this is perfect.  Looking for the same 
experience for markdown for me.  I'm sure even if we were to get this 
support, there will be the next person asking for support for tables or so 
other extension beyond LaTeX.
