I’d be very interested if that were possible. It would potentially allow us to 
dispense with the current Markdown parser, which has significantly limited 
capabilities compared to native wikitext.

I also agree with Josiah’s point that a worthy longer term goal is to make 
TiddlyWiki a meta-markup system that allows end users to create their own 
markup parse rules. However, the complexity of the CommonMark specification 
suggests to me that it wouldn’t be possible to create a practical parser 
entirely declaratively. In other words, I think the complexities of arbitrary 
markup may well require arbitrary computational capabilities to parse.

But, of course, even if we couldn’t create a 100% spec compliant CommonMark 
parser declaratively, it would still be a very useful thing to have.

Best wishes

Jeremy
