I thought of this previously, the bad part being that it's then
impossible to escape anything that begins with a closing bracket,
which just seems wrong.  I.e., in the current implementation I can do

   [=]]=]

but this wouldn't work if we disallow bracket as an initial character.
Yes, I can come up with cases where someone might want this -- e.g.,
if they need to place an escaped closing bracket inside of link text.
