GitHub Flavored Markdown

The markdown preview window doesn’t render some GitHub Flavoured Markdown properly.

Roses are red
Violets are blue

In Atom, these lines don’t break, which is correct Markdown behaviour but not correct GitHub Flavoured Markdown behaviour.

Furthermore, references are not being auto-linked.

Thanks for the move. I now see how Atom packages have their own repos.

This is not supported by Marked, the library used to parse Markdown in this packages:

markedjs/marked#44

So, we either wait for Marked to implement that, or implement it ourselves on top of that somehow. I'll label this as an enhancement for now.
