What might we want to be able to encode in this text that Markdown/HTML doesn’t allow? HTML has long s+t (as in this doc) but not the c+t it is nice that a text does not need to have the special characters in unicode

Audience of your web page? Does that affect the decisions you made? if my students are my audience, the ligatures and long-s would be off-putting -- it would be nice to have an option to diplay those charactes, or not (e.g. mouse-over)
