Applying the same attributes to all elements of the same name is a bad markup style, especially if it's a class attribute like in your example. If the reason you do this is to facilitate styling, why not just create a rule "h1" or "p" in your stylesheet that applies to all elements with that name? Also, your new proposal for a span element: [special words]{#myspan} seems to me even more ambiguous than the previous one using braces instead of square brakets since John Gruber wants to introduce the [single braket] syntax as a shortcut for reference-style links in a future version of Markdown.[^1] Your span syntax, would become exactly the same as a shortcut reference-style link with a custom attribute. [^1]: That future is not so far away: the shortcut reference-style link syntax is currently implemented in the latest 1.0.2 betas and present but commented out in the current PHP Markdown & Extra releases.

That seems like a somewhat bad idea, likely to break all sorts of existing uses. How is someone supposed to write [sic], for example?

The only problem would be if you were put something like this at the bottom and not really mean it... [sic]: http://example.org/ /Jelks
