I would say that your editor should take care of that (for me, Emacs
does an excellent job).

Did you evaluate Python's StructuredText? I don't have a link handy but
I'm sure a google for it would reveal it quite fast. I've used it for
some projects and it works pretty ok. What I would do with it would be
to keep the plain text (or structured text document) as the a priori
representation and then, if you wanted to publish it on the web, just
have a cgi-script or something that ran it through the StructuredText
parser.
Then again, LaTex (or SGML) would probably give you the most
possibilities (and problems ;).
Erik.
