FYI: Markdown "allows you to write using an easy-to-read,
easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid
XHTML (or HTML). ...is two things: (1) a plain text formatting syntax;
and (2) a software tool, written in Perl, that converts the plain text
formatting to HTML." -- http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/

So in essence it comes from the same itch as rst but with a narrower
focus and different, smaller, syntax
(http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/dingus). It is reasonably
popular and I expect sooner or later someone will be interested in
building a parser for Leo. Here are some opinions on the relative
merits of each and when to use them:

I'm a bit confused. Pandoc's website says it already provides
conversion between rst and markdown, so what would a Leo markdown
plugin be used for?
