/**
 *  class Markdown
 *
 *  Markdown processing in Javascript done right. We have very particular views
 *  on what constitutes 'right' which include:
 *
 *  - produces well-formed HTML (this means that em and strong nesting is
 *    important)
 *
 *  - has an intermediate representation to allow processing of parsed data (We
 *    in fact have two, both as [JsonML]: a markdown tree and an HTML tree).
 *
 *  - is easily extensible to add new dialects without having to rewrite the
 *    entire parsing mechanics
 *
 *  - has a good test suite
 *
 *  This implementation fulfills all of these (except that the test suite could
 *  do with expanding to automatically run all the fixtures from other Markdown
 *  implementations.)
 *
 *  ##### Intermediate Representation
 *
 *  *TODO* Talk about this :) Its JsonML, but document the node names we use.
 *
 *  [JsonML]: http://jsonml.org/ "JSON Markup Language"
