That's a great idea, thanks! I'll do that tomorrow or so.
As a preview, two specific cases I've seen:
1) In PRs, some companies like to have semi-structured metadata, like a link to a related ticket under a heading "Ticket". In mdq, you could find that using `# Ticket | [](^https://issues.acme.com/)`
2) Many projects ask people who submit bugs to check off whether they've searched for existing bugs. `- [x] I've looked in the bug tracker for existing bugs`
