Extremely alpha, consider it a PoC: 
http://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/collective.markitup/ 

Actually the switch to a given markup language is handled entirely by Plone 
(@@markup-controlpanel) and I'm doing my best not to mess with that. If you 
select MarkItUp as your editor you can continue to edit bare HTML, only with a 
WYSIWYM preview option. If you switch the type of the given document to 
Markdown, I'd like MarkItUp to automatically switch the preview type. I think I 
can do that. 

I've written a naive view at context/@@transform_preview that'll just render 
any Markdown you POST to it. It'll do for testing, but can I be sure it's 
secure? (It requires cmf.ModifyPortalContent and uses 
Products.PortalTransforms.) 

MarkItUp! has a packs for Markdown, Textile, ReStructuredText and other 
languages. Once I have figured out how to elegantly include various markups, 
I'll do so.

I'm working on a product to integrate MarkItUp, a WYSIWYM editor, into Plone. 
For previewing transformations of formats like Markdown, rst, Textile, etc, it 
can make an AJAX request and use the server response if the server can do a 
barebones rendering of the transform-to-HTML.
