The formats I need to handle are HTML and Markdown, while I could convert them to Pango markup, it seems redundant to do so. That said, I was looking to be able to copy HTML back out from a buffer that's handling HTML (by parsing it on insert).
I should note, as I haven't already, that my use case here is the input widget for Pidgin an instant messaging client. So some networks don't support any formatting, some do HTML, and others do markdown. So the way I have this structured right now is that there's a text table with all the tags, there's a text view that handles the wysiwyg stuff discussed previously, and then there's an html buffer that parses the html in the insert_text handler and applies the tags to that. That said, I need both the specific markup and the plain text for a number of scenarios. So if there's a way I can have the text view how to do additional parsing that is mostly likely the direction I'll need to go.
