Right. However, as I found out asking elsewhere, you can include HTML
in Markdown. For example, Markdown doesn't by itself provide targets
for links. So in a glossary, I do this:

* <a id="eprom"></a>EPROM: Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory,

Now I can make a link to that target:

... and burn to ROM (or, more likely, [EPROM](#eprom)).

Feel free to experiment with it. I suspect you might have to remove the
<body> tags and everything outside them, and then have your static site
generator provide those. That might end up being an advantage.
