 Still, why shouldn't refnames be allowed to have embedded brackets

To me those seem to be two entirely different things...  The _text_ of
the link has to be flexible to allow almost anything.  refnames, on
the other hand are identifiers and as such it makes sense for them to
be more constrained.  For instance, if you allow new lines in them it
opens a whole bunch of questions as to what white space "counts".


In Text::Markdown, I'm allowing new lines in link text:

As it was specifically reported to me as a bug:
