This input fails on my computer: 

## Heading 2
#### Heading 4

After studying the question, it seems that the idea to use a markdown representation for these kind of broken unordered lists was a bad idea after all. Conflicts with fenced code blocks among other things arise when having empty list levels between entries. I'll switch back to a tree to html representation in the next version, removing the markdown callback option. This will be a breaking change anyway, although not sure if anyone uses this feature.

Thank you very much for your effort!

The problem I met is that, I need real time rendering for changing texts. When user alter the content, the middle state could be unpredictable, which includes the problem described here.
