NOTE: prior to J&J turning on the editting CGI, you can see the new  
markdown syntax of a page via History > page.mdwn or blob.  More  
comments below.

Tables of contents now only present a single level list if headings,  
instead of multilevel.

I don't know if this is something you can fix automatically, but  
symbols on pages that look like stuff\_with\_underscores, should  
probably turn into `stuff_with_backquotes` instead. I don't know if  
this will work in headings, though.

Definition lists got a lot uglier to define. And what's with  
class="line862"?

<<tt>> text should map back to `tt`

An alternative GitWeb diff would be welcome: it is confusing to have  
leading '-' and '+' in the display when leading '-' has meaning in  
MarkDown. Line and character level diffs were a nice feature of Moin.

Is there going to be web site search?
