Inline formatting:

Link: [text](url)
      [text **can have formatting**](url "tooltip text")
Image: ![](url)
       ![alt text (image doesnt load)](url "tooltip text")
Superscript (new): 4^(3) = 64
Subscript (new): a[n] = 2n + 1
Bold: **text**
Underline: __text__
italic: *text* _text_
Strikethrough: ~~text~~
Inline code (has formatting!): `text`
Checkboxes anywhere in the document, not just lists: [ ] [x]
Unformatted text with curly braces (new): {aaa **aaa** __aaa__}
Raw curly braces (HTML chars left unescaped): {! foo <span>bar</span>}
Nested curly braces: {aa {bb} cc {dd {ee}} ff}
Inline code without formatting: `{1 < 3 ? _ * 3 + 3 * _ + 2 ** 2 ** 2 : 4 & 2}`

Inline HTML (no formatting inside, raw curly braces might be better): <table>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td>a 1</td>
      <td>a 2</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>b 1</td>
      <td>b 2</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
