Support For ODP Notes #34

The presenter's mode module lets the presenter see the current slide, the next slide, and a countdown timer while the audience sees the presentation slide.

The idea that asciidoc-odf had a markdown directive for inserting notes for presenter node would make presentations complete.

From the LibreOffice extensions page for clarification:

Presenter Console: the Presenter Console extension provides more control of slide show presentations, such as letting you see the upcoming slide, your slide notes, and a presentation timer, while the audience only sees the current slide. You can use three views: the first view displays the current slide, including the effects and the upcoming slide; the second view shows the speaker's notes in scalable type, together with the current and the upcoming slide; the third view is a slide sorter view with thumbnails.

I agree, but the whole ODP implementation needs to be though through first.

At the moment the problem is the mapping between AsciiDoc's text-flow, and ODP's graphical model. What is needed is a discussion on how we use AsciiDoc's syntax to allow for the broadest support to ODP. But also how our implementation is compatible with other presentation-centered backends.

While I would love to see this happen, I won't have the time in the midterm to look at this. Unfortunately.
