Render properly GitHub style todo lists

[doup]

In GitHub there is the option to define TODO lists in this format:

- [ ] foo
- [X] bar

It would be nice to render the brackets like checkboxes. See this gist to see how it's rendered in GitHub.

Would be really nice. There also seems to be a greater issue with formatting of these, i.e. if you try

- [ ] [link](http://google.com)

it seems to interpret and render the - properly, but the rest isn't.

I've created an issue at Orc/discount#142 since it's the library used for parsing the markdown.

Thanks, man.

Seems that this should be done in qlmarkdown via post-processing. I'm waiting for confirmation but it seems like discount will not implement this.

If I ever get back into this, then we can shred discount. Using modern tech it'll be really easy to implement a markdown generator. The only problem is that I don't understand how to write a QuickLook generator, and I haven't had time to research it since my job has taken me away from Objective-C for the moment.
