Supporting or switching to MultiMarkdown would take care of a few of the outstanding feature requests. Quoting from the MultiMarkdown site:
|

|
|

|
>MultiMarkdown is a modification of John Gruber's original Markdown.pl file. It uses the same basic syntax, with several additions:
|
||
|
|
||
|
> 1. I have added a basic metadata feature, to allow the inclusion of
|
||
|
> metadata within a document that can be used in different ways based
|
||
|
> on the output format.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> 2. I have allowed the automatic use of cross-references within a Markdown
|
||
|
> document. For instance, you can easily jump to
|
||
|
> [the Introduction][Introduction].
|
||
|
|
||
|
> 3. I have incorporated John's proposed syntax for footnotes. Since he
|
||
|
> has not determined the output format, I created my own. Mainly, I
|
||
|
> wanted to be able to add footnotes to the LaTeX output; I was less
|
||
|
> concerned with the XHTML formatting.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> 4. Most importantly, however, I have changed the way that the processed
|
||
|
> output is created, so that it is quite simple to export Markdown syntax
|
||
|
> to a variety of outputs. By setting the `Format` metadata to `complete`,
|
||
|
> you generate a well-formed XHTML page. You can then use XSLT to convert
|
||
|
> to virtually any format you like.

MultiMarkdown would solve the BibTex request and the multiple output formats would make the print_link request an easy fix. MultiMarkdown is actively developed and can be found at:
