Parse MyST Markdown using Remark

[mettekou]

Proposal

I've been an avid user of MyST Markdown and greatly appreciate the work you've done to enhance scientific writing. I believe you're always looking for ways to enhance MyST Markdown's capabilities. Have you considered the potential benefits of switching from markdown-it to Remark? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this. Would you be open to exploring how Remark could potentially benefit MyST Markdown?

Thanks for the suggestion - this would require discussion and research before making any kinds of decisions, so I suspect it will be some time before folks get to this because of the limited developer / maintainer capacity on the project. You could certainly write a MyST parser that uses Remark - so a nice starting point might be to implement something and show it off to see how it would be more beneficial than markdown-it (or potentially maintained as a parallel community effort).
