Good, I didn't know there was interest in the other features of the
Textile parser. I was of two minds about including Textile, and I was
thinking about how to make this configurable. There are a couple of
things, which need changing, for instance some XML processing in
Message assume that the parsed elements have a flat structure, i.e. no
nested elements as Textile allows. But once this is solved it should
be doable.
I'll put this on my todo list.
