Re: Markdown

Tested on a fair number of posts, seems to work well. Now if only
someone could make a smartypants plugin too :)

I did find one apparent bug in markdown.py. I see from the webpage that
python markdown is getting active development, so there's a good chance
this will get fixed or has been fixed in svn already. I filed a bug
report with them about this:

It doesn't do markdowns lazy blockquoting. It will convert:

> Jalopy is a 'collaborative website' creator, with a built in, online,
WYSIWYG, editor. This means it is a tool to allow a team to build a
website together. It is integrated with login tools so that pages can
only be created, or edited, by people with a login. Jalopy websites have
a private index through which the site is edited. They also have a
public index that is automatically updated when new pages are added, or
details changed. Jalopy means - a dilapidated old vehicle. Any program I
create is bound to creak around the edges a bit, so I thought it was
appropriate. It also ends in 'py', which is a tradition for projects
written in Python.

Instead of what it should do:
