I'm not sure this is important enough to make exception of the rule that no new features are installed on the release branch. Moreover, given the proliferation of Markdown style in contexts other than just *.md files, I think we should have Markdown support in other places, such as email modes and in what looks like plain text files. We need some reliable auto-detection of Markdown markup that turns on this mode, or maybe a markdown-minor-mode. It is also possible that Text mode should support some of the more popular Markdown styles (like quoting `like this`) OOTB. IOW, I think we should do more work here than just add a mode for editing *.md files, and that will take some time and discussions to figure out and integrate.
