Lately I realised that there are actually two markdown render engines on github: the one that is officially "GFM" (github flavoured markdown), which is used for issues, comments and pull requests, and the other one, which is somehow closer to standard markdown, that is used to render .md files in repos when you click on them (e.g., any .md file in https://github.com/pw374/sandbox/).

So I've decided that by default, omd should do standard markdown newlines, not GFM's.
