Textbox() parsing markdown

I think it would be awesome if a textbox could be given markdown or even better gitlab markdown and it would parse it into a pretty format.  

 

I'm thinking something like

 

Names default to here(1);
md_text = "
# Header1
## Header2
Some text that is *italics* or **bold** or _underlined_
";

new window("Markdown", 
	textbox(Trim(md_text), << Markdown )
);

many of my colleagues use R with Markdown to generate fantastic looking reports. It would be great if something similar could be achieved with JSL.

@Ryan_Gilmore I would ask that you please unarchive this ask. I was just coming today to add a wish very similar to this. I notice that in JMP Notebooks, the text blocks support Markdown, so it would be great for textboxes in JSL to have similar capabilities.

JMP so badly needs markdown.
