    There are many flavours and extensions of markdown. For example rendering of a table is not part of the standard. How newlines are handled also differ.

    to have all browsers support this, this need to be made into a web standard. And all agreed by different browser vendors (like chrome, safari and firefox).

    right now this might be best handled by browser extension first.

      Why can’t I just write this up as a PR to Firefox and stand a snowball’s chance of getting it merged, though? Everything’s somehow simultaneously extremely stodgy and completely beholden to whatever Google decides to ship this week.
