## Why is a spec needed?
John Gruber's [canonical description of Markdown's
syntax](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax)
does not specify the syntax unambiguously. Here are some examples of
questions it does not answer:
1. How much indentation is needed for a sublist? The spec says that
continuation paragraphs need to be indented four spaces, but is
not fully explicit about sublists. It is natural to think that
they, too, must be indented four spaces, but `Markdown.pl` does
not require that. This is hardly a "corner case," and divergences
between implementations on this issue often lead to surprises for
users in real documents. (See [this comment by John
Gruber](http://article.gmane.org/gmane.text.markdown.general/1997).)
2. Is a blank line needed before a block quote or header?
Most implementations do not require the blank line. However,
this can lead to unexpected results in hard-wrapped text, and
also to ambiguities in parsing (note that some implementations
put the header inside the blockquote, while others do not).
(John Gruber has also spoken [in favor of requiring the blank
lines](http://article.gmane.org/gmane.text.markdown.general/2146).)
3. Is a blank line needed before an indented code block?
(`Markdown.pl` requires it, but this is not mentioned in the
documentation, and some implementations do not require it.)
