I have one nitpick with djot that is very small but annoying: nested lists shouldn’t require a new line before them.

    .

    - foo
    - bar
        - baz

should be OK, but djot requires it to be

    .
    
    - foo
    - bar

        - baz

I get that djot wants blocks to be delimited by newlines, in fact I like that decision. But then a nested list shouldn’t be considered a separate block from its parent, it should be considered a “child”, where “child” blocks are delimited from “parent” blocks by indentation instead of newlines.

EDIT: formatting doesn’t seem to be working, the “foo” and “bar” are supposed to be indented at the same level.

+1 for Djot. Simple, predictable, and extensible. Made by the author of Pandoc.
