Hmmm. Easy (in the short-term) is not the driving criteria here, is it? C++ added features to C. Common Markdown's main purpose is not to add features to Markdown; rather, its purpose is to standardize it: > We propose a standard, unambiguous syntax specification for Markdown, along with a suite of comprehensive tests to validate Markdown implementations against this specification. We believe this is necessary, even essential, for the future of Markdown. I think the Common Markdown community may (and should) add a grammar at some point, based on some discussion two days ago.
