Why two underscores? why isn't just one underscore enough? ([Example]_)


Actually, if we're not going to go for the [super-minimal approach], then I
vote for keeping the [current link syntax][] as is and just move on.

It's quite readable and and it has two advantages over [[all]] [the]=
[other]~ [alternatives]-> [suggested]__ to date:

1) It is already implemented, and the lot of us have been using it in our
own documents. No need to learn new tricks.

2) It is nicely consistent with the [explicit link reference][1] syntax
which makes it easier to learn and more readable/understandable for everyone
reading Markdown documents.


...just my 2 bits.
