I like this idea.

It's the same thing that happens with

!!Heading
!! Heading
!!  Heading
!!   Heading

Where the first two result in identical XHTML output and the other two
have one and two leading spaces in the heading text respectively.

That, combined with automatically adding newlines above/below heading
upon saving would be fantastic.

IOW, if someone tries to save

    Blah
   !!Heading
   Blah

it would be saved as

   Blah

   !!Heading

   Blah

and that would result in markup that doesn't include a "vspace
paragraph" above or below the H2 heading.  If someone wants to add a
little extra vspace, they could add an extra newline.
