Hi,

There seems to be an inconsistency between the Org syntax spec and the
actual behavior regarding text markup: the spec forbids `,`, `'` and
`"` in the border, yet it seems to work just fine to use them there in
the current version of Org. I think it's great that Org mode supports
this, but since the spec hasn't been updated to reflect this change,
external Org parsers which follow it don't. An example is org-ruby,
which is used by both GitLab and GitHub to render README files: 
https://github.com/wallyqs/org-ruby/issues/36
