is markdown ready to take the next big step?

here's what i'd like to see:

as an intermediate step, a browser plug-in
that would take a markdown-formatted file
and silently convert it into xhtml on-the-fly,
then render it as such in the browser window.
thus, a "view source" would show plain-text.

eventually, this could be incorporated _into_
the browser itself, so no plug-in was needed,
transforming the web into a place that has
a _plain-text_format_ as its very foundation.

let's save the world from the pain of heavy markup.

here's wishing you the happiest of years in 2006...
