Cool!
Image markdown style formatting to allow more advanced control of how images are rendered. e.g. 
You might as just let users write the <img> tags directly at this point, at least then you won’t add noise to third party apps’ accessibility stacks.
(I honestly wouldn’t be opposed to letting users write HTML directly, it was one of Tumblr’s best features imo)

But that would open many security holes, allowing XSS attacks, loading viruses, and all those bad things.

Obviously it’d only be a subset of HTML. No website that uses user-submitted HTML (Tumblr, AO3, Royal Road, etc) actually allows the full suit of tags.

GitHub allows some HTML in their markdown files, including <img> it’s just very limited, same with email
