Nested objects of the same type are not really a limitation of top-down
parser. It is the syntax of objects that might but does not have to be.
We might come up with a syntax that allow nesting.
I would be glad to learn that I am wrong. The current parser picks first
terminating token ignoring other opening tokens in between. The only way
I see is unique identifiers for opening and closing tokens to allow
match them in pairs. It would be tedious to type and to copy fragments
from similar text.
A similar problem is importing and exporting fragments of mail messages
having multilevel quotes. #+begin_quote is not enough, it is necessary
to use something else for inner citations, e.g. #+begin_quote1.
Moreover I would prefer to have links as links even when they need some
special treatment.
