It would be great to have some simple markdown support in things like notes, events, meetings, calls, tasks, including comments. I’m thinking basic things like:

- Headers
- Horizontal Rules
- Bold/italic
- lists

I know markdown for headers would conflict with the way snippets are included… But headers is what I’d use most. It would save a lot of time when writing formatted, more readable notes.

Could not agree more!!! Markdown is ubiquitous elsewhere (e.g. Github) and as-you-type headers would really make notes less cluttered.
