Using HTML instead of Markdown in text editor?

I think HTML is better, and offers more options than Markdown. My recommendation is TinyMCE editor, it is being used as a default text editor in WordPress. Also in the future, it would be nice if we could make an option to switch between text editors and html/markdown.

A switch would be nice, but I'm more in favour of using a combination of both.

However, as allowing HTML is a minefield of security disasters, I think it's probably best to use just Markdown. Perhaps we could build an extended version of it.

By the way, in Pulsir 3, we used Parsedown to generate HTML from Markdown (http://parsedown.org/) which I quite liked, combining it with HTML Purifier (which sadly isn't really actively developed anymore - http://htmlpurifier.org/) to allow only harmless tags.
