_Someone_ should write Markdown rendering plugins for popular

text/plain because text/markdown will appear as an unreadable
attachment for most clients (not least Gmail).
IMHO, it's better to do the same as with HTML letters:
text/markdown body + text/plain body for clients not supporting
markdown.
