Description

(Updating this so that people don't have to read the whole thread...)
http://commonmark.org/

I have already suggested this to Hoedown (https://github.com/hoedown/hoedown/issues/119), so if they implement this it will take care of your renderer, but I don't know if supporting this standard also requires changes to your editor/interface.

Research direction

Read the CommonMark specification and the linked Hoedown issue first. Determine whether implementing support requires changes to the renderer, the editor, or the interface; completion would mean the relevant MacDown behavior conforms to the chosen CommonMark scope.
