This is a silly bug actually: *...* is for bold markup, so *** is
exported as a bold star.

I'd rather not make an exception and modify bold parsing, so other
characters should be inserted to represent headline's level. I find
numbers too verbose. Replacing stars with dots is not possible either as
"..." will be exported differently with some export back-ends.

Maybe "* * *" instead of "***"? Any better idea?
