My other thoughts, I should add: * We could also just tighten the rules for link ref IDs all the way, and outright ban literal `[` and `]` chars in the IDs. * Even if we allow them, it might be easier, both in terms of code and documentation, to simply state that they must be backslash-escaped. After a few more minutes of thought, I'm having a hard time coming up with a good reason why `[` and `]` shouldn't just be banned characters for link ref IDs. -J.G. _______________________________________________ Markdown-Discuss mailing list Markdown-Discuss@six.pairlist.net http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/markdown-discuss
