I still miss how it is an improvement over current Markdown. It's true that you 
can't solve the issue of editors having different lengths for tabs, but you're 
already picking four-space-per-tab so why do it differently from everyone else?

Note that if I were to use your algorithm, it'd probably break a lot of my own 
existing documents. I almost always use tabs to indent multi-paragraph lists, 
which includes a tab after the list marker. Maybe I'm the only one...
