Description

Other Markdown users have figured out a way to add the rel="nofollow attribute to links:

[link text](http://website.com/){:rel=nofollow}

This may seem like a minor detail, but it prevents SEO-minded people from using Markdown in Drupal. They have to revert to traditional <a> tags/XHTML.
