I did briefly. It may deserve more investigation. It was meant to provide 
an intermediate between true WYSIWYG and markdown. It may be what should be 
used as the editor for markdown cells. A key is that I think there is some 
value to the markdown cells being a place you can just type away and get 
out formatted text. This is useful for people who are good typist and know 
markdown well. There is an example 
<https://prosemirror.net/examples/markdown/> on the Prosemirror site where 
the user can switch between text markdown and what they call WYSIWYM.

After I get full rich text editing working and ported to Jupyter lab, I 
might be convinced to work on getting Prosemirror working on markdown 
cells. Is there somebody else who might work on this?

It did not look like Prosemirror could be used for full WYSIWYG rich text 
editing. Did I overlook something?
