Supporting Markdown as an input option is a good idea - but why would you support a non-standard version of it?   CommonMark (https://commonmark.org/) is the relevant "specification" for markdown.  Kramdown, on the other hand, is a specific tool that promotes its own flavor...

    I’m a bit ambiguous about “official support”.  
    This is a bit like the transition from an individual draft to a working group draft…

    Today, at 10:24 CET, Martin Thomson filed an issue, and he provided a fix at 10:27.
    At 11:04, version 1.3.26 with that fix was pushed to rubygems.org so people can `gem update` to that.
    I’d like to keep the kramdown-rfc process lightweight enough so we can have these turnaround times.

    But sure, making the tool available on the tools/datatracker web presences and via the submission tool would be helpful.

    I’m not so sure about (2).  This would require idnits to do some second-guessing of what kramdown—rfc does, and would make it harder to evolve kramdown-rfc.  Why not run the authoring tool and then idnits?  Right now, there isn’t even a way to run idnits on the XML, maybe we could address that first. 
    Maybe I should put a simple CLI option for running idnits into the `kdrfc` tool...
