Maybe the first and easier step its to add a new target to generate markdown code? This way txt2tags users can paste markdown code in all these tools that support it.
But a basic txt2tags PHP module could be doable, to just convert the marks to HTML. No config, no pre/postproc, no headers, no complications.
