That may be useful as option to be decided by the subset of users who need it. It better not be by default to nag those who may not need it. Have been editing markdown since 2004 and just before 1-2 years have discovered markdown-mode. The only thing I need in that mode is preview which I can do myself by assigning a key to function. Markdown's goal was always simplicity and being able to edit with any editor. That is just to tell you of my user experience and habit.
