Ambiguity around annotation scopes

See original GitHub issue

Consider the following line.

[a[] b []c]

Is this one annotation with the contents a[] b []c? Or is it an item b with two annotations a[ and ]c? This ambiguity results from allowing square brackets inside annotations.

Another example:

[a [b]]

Is this

an annotation with the contents a [b], or
an item with contents ] and an annotation a [b?

In other words, which square bracket closes an annotation? The first one found, or the last one?

Maybe you could create an issue label “spec” for issues that discuss the margin specification.

Yeah it’s probably not too hard to implement, and the behavior seems like it would be the least surprising out of all the options.
