wow.

this is awesome, truly awesome.
i'm looking forward to seeing it.

i am _especially_ excited by "round-tripping" --
the ability to take any markdown text and generate
the .html for it, and then back-translate that .html
into a markdown file that's exactly the same as the
one you started with -- but maybe that's just me...      ;+)

and start dropping this code into servers or browsers,
so us human beings can upload plain-text all the time,
and not even have to think about .html files ever again...
