Thank you, I think this makes a lot of sense. I came across Pandoc when
I first learned about Markdown and I like its extended version of
Markdown very much, in particular the fact that it supports footnotes
and tables (the same goes for Markdown Extra).
Unfortunately, none of the tools I use locally (MarkdownHere for Mozilla
Thunderbird, MarkdownPad) support any extended versions of Markdown, and
I was unable to install Pandoc.
I use the MarkdownExtra Dingus or the Try Pandoc page every once in a
while, but generally having to use a browser is too much of an
interruption to my usual "offline" workflow.
Is there a "how to install Pandoc for dummies"-type site somewhere?

See question 6 here:
http://johnmacfarlane.net/babelmark2/faq.html#what-are-some-big-questions-that-the-markdown-spec-does-not-answer
And note that pandoc allows you to create two blockquotes if
you leave blank space between,
http://johnmacfarlane.net/babelmark2/?normalize=1&text=%3E+foo%0A%0A%3E+bar%0A%0A
If you want one blockquote with two paragraphs, do it like this:
http://johnmacfarlane.net/babelmark2/?normalize=1&text=%3E+foo%0A%3E%0A%3E+bar%0A%0A
Unfortunately the other implementations don't make this distinction.
