[O] Using org-babel in other modes?

[Dave Abrahams]

Org-babel does a magic thing where you get to edit and view your source
code blocks in their native modes.  Wow!

I also happen to use markdown-mode to write blog articles.  How hard, on
a scale from "read the source and figure it out" to "org-babel already
has the hooks; you can do it in 5 minutes," would it be to integrate the
org-babel stuff with markdown?

Seems like this trick would be extremely useful for quite a few modes
(RestructuredText, anyone?)

Thanks,
