That would certainly be terrific! My understanding is also that markdown was invented by Gruber and 
that there are multiple extensions. I would propose Fletcher Penney's syntax summary for 
MultiMarkdown, see https://rawgit.com/fletcher/human-markdown-reference/master/index.html.

Let me restate that when converting to LO/OO format, the converter should not impose /any/ style 
information whatsoever, not use a particular font, a particular style etc. If I - in LO - have 
defined the font cvayfgappt23mpat at 12.74 points to be the font for Headings Level 2 that should 
be used and if I have font y0gagöaqgfy 37.902 points for body text that should be used, no 
assumptions about fonts, languages etc. My understanding is that a LO document always has certain 
styles defined, including Header 1, Header 2, Text Body, Table Header etc. and whatever I have 
defined those as in LO would be used by LO.
