Some open issues/questions:
1) I think we need a syntax for escaping a block of text. I'd propose
using {{{whatever here}}} (same as creole and confluence). We could do
it with a macro but I don't know how we could implement it easily...
2) Do we want double curly braces for macros or simple ones:
{{macro/}} or {macro/}. If we use simple ones then it won't be easy to
enter { and } chars in a text (they would need to be escaped) and
since we've decided to have double chars for items ( **, --, ~~, etc)
we might as well do that for macros.
3) Do we want to support images in links. For example:
[[image:someimage.png]]? We already support URIs in links, such as
mailto: so maybe it wouldn't be too hard to support images too I
guess. Or do we want only the Image macro? A related question is do we
support http images (http://.../someimage.png) inside links and as an
inline element directly in the text?
4) Tables: do we keep the table macro or do we want a wiki syntax for
tables.
Thanks
