Is the editor really a problem to solve for Markdown? Philosophically I regard Markdown as a language in the text-only-editor-unimportant family.

I recently built a (simple, only works for me) filter for pandoc that allows for formulas in Markdown tables. org-mode features is what Markdown is missing, but without the marriage to the editor.

At the same time: an editor like this makes Markdown more accessible for non-hackers, which is always good.

I don't think it's a "problem to solve" i think it's an opportunity to grasp.

I love markdown and can read it just fine without an editor like this, but I, and many others, find it useful to have headings actually be darker and bigger. There's value to those typographical changes. There's value to links being a different color. Having an editor that can provide your eyes with helpful things.... helps.
