Probably.

One reason I've held off on major updates for so long is the idea  
that if I'm going to break compatibility with Markdown 1.0, it'd best  
to break it once, in multiple ways. Better for one Markdown 2.0 that  
breaks/changes/clarifies several things all at once than than a bunch  
of 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 updates that break things here and there.

Plus, anything outright new, like tables, is by definition going to  
break compatibility with 1.0 implementations.
