markdown is getting even more common these days it would be nice that geany can make itself a first class markdown editor. The "urgent" feature I would request:
1. When adding a list, a return key should automatically make next line read for the list, now I have to type each list line with "* my line", the "* " part should be automatically added.
2. select a few lines and change them to a list easily together
3. when type headlines they should be bold as what **bold** already does
4. select some text then use keybinding to make it bold or italic, e.g. Ctrl+B(bold), ctrl+I(italic) , or just type `**` , `*` it can auto be added to both ends of the selected text, now I can only do this with quote sign `
with above features, geany will become one of the best markdown editor, that alone is enough for its wider usage
