The MarkupExtensions almost does this.
See http://www.wikipublisher.org/wiki/index.php?n=Wikipublisher.MarkupExtensions#toc1
Specifically: -- becomes an em dash (!)
digit-digit becomes digitendashdigit
`- becomes an ed dash, and so on.
The reason for choosing -- for an em dash is that
it's what people tend to write; few people write ---
when they want an em dash. However, it can all be
customised.
Hope this helps.
