It works, but it would just move the problem somewhere else instead of
solving it.
More flexible solutions (yet more involved) could be:
- Escape the characters ourselves (i.e. do not use \verb)
- have a stack of suitable delimiter characters (i.e. any character except
letters, * or space) and use the first one that's not in the region.
A simpler solution would be to stick to '=' and '~' as delimiters,
documenting this shortcoming when exporting to LaTeX.

Agreed.

AFAIK there isn't.

I was expecting it to generate something like this:
\author{my Name $<$\href{mailto:e...@ma.il}{e@ma.il}$>$
Anyway yes, I could do it myself.
By the way, using \verb inside other commands (such as \section) is
forbidden in LaTeX; shall we include a warning in the manual, silently
ignore ~~ and == in those places, or maybe just leave as it is (It'll
break when compiling the.tex) ?
