Most excellent! If Github supported it alongside markdown, this would drive the markdown parsers to support this as a flavor, and then the community could decide; it will be fascinating to analyze the open-source population. I'm finding dozens of applications for a lingua franca of mildly-structured, human-readable language that transforms as easily into data as documents and UI's. I've built out 10+ markdown applications using 3-4 parsers, and always had to reduce the effective semantics to a small subset of features, and then had to use metadata or convention to do what attributes will do much more cleanly. As for Lua: yes it's the best for integrating into pandoc performance-wise, but ay! the table structures and metadata tables to get anything like typing are mind bending, and I am still miffed at being blocked at a critical time by a bug in pandoc's lua initializer for tables. Aside language/stdlib developers, jgm is my greatest benefactor, and he deserves a cadre of loyal and competent implementors.
