Re: Shorter/optional version of section/subsection title [Markdown to Latex workflow]

[John MacFarlane <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>]

Sorry, I see that your question is about section titles,
not figure captions (which that PR concerns). The issues
are similar, though.

I'm open to suggestions about how this might be translated
into Markdown.

One option, of course, is an attribute:

    # A very long title {short-title="A shorter title"}

One drawback of this is that we lose the possibility of formatting
in the short title, since an attribute value is just a
string.  (I suppose we could parse it as Markdown, though.)
