Discuss medium- and long-term intermediate markup approach #159

Currently we put text in JSON with Markdown-ish markup, that we interpret with our own custom code (and additional layers, in the case of tables). We started down this path because we anticipated that more of the paragraph-level content would be plain text than is actually the case.

We should discuss this and come up with a plan that isn't "accidentally create our own lightweight text markup language".

Looks like Python-Markdown allows its output to be overridden: http://stackoverflow.com/a/22130024
