It's an interesting idea, actually, and it would be a general way of enabling text markup languages. You'd always edit in org-mode. However, I think the problem would be writing the implementation. lentic cannot really cope with complex text markups since it has to redo the transformation often (every keypress). So the transformation rules need to be really simple. I haven't done a lentic transform for markdown yet, although I ought to. The main problem is that the start of code sections is implicit, which makes it a PITA. Phil
