e-mailed and/or posted to a one-off web page during fast and furious specification development. So, it needs to be pasted into an e-mail and/or "saved as" a simple file-based web page. You need to keep the Markdown version as that will form the basis of the final version but it's much too cumbersome to edit and format in Word at this stage (or any stage, but that's another discussion).
This is my own normal use of Markdown, and I like the idea of adding "Save HTML to new location" to the default Markdown bundle. In this usage case, the HTML is like the PDF compiled from LaTeX source; the PDF is for public consumption, but you need the LaTeX to continue to change the document.
