For that, I have already tested and adapted the code provided a couple of
years go by Juan Manuel Macías.

I'm being a bit more conservative in that I want something that satisfies
99% of the use cases and once that is done, check what is missing and

Let the gurus speak.
Once again, let's try to get at the level of pandoc and debate from there.
