  this looks like really good improvements over commonmark. i'd like to start using djot to render existing markdown files, and slowly start writing new files in djot utilizing some of the extra features. i tend to write my markdown such that it would mostly be a valid djot file anyway (no html, #-only for headings, empty lines between all block elements, etc.) -- but i see one design choice that prevents me from making this transition. it looks like djot has changed the syntax for inline italic/bold text in a way that's incompatible with markdown. i see why it was done, but it's a shame because it looks like this is the only thing that really prevents rolling this out as a "soft" transition.
