I love pandoc. With it's lua filters, I love using it for generating html and blog posts, one thing which always annoys me about most static website generating tools is they make you use some very limited templating language, when I just want to use a proper programming language.
My only irritation -- while I understand why one would want to do it for neatness, it's annoying that the "pandoc" package no longer provides the "pandoc" program! Maybe instead introducing "pandoc-core" and renaming "pandoc-cli" to "pandoc" would be better (it would certainly avoid breaking existing scripts, like mine).
