I never use markdown myself. Between the two of us, you are de facto the
expert.

This is problematic. There is a rule in "ox-md" that contradicts what
you are suggesting. From org-md-separate-elements's docstring:
2. In an item, remove any blank line before the very first
paragraph and the next sub-list.
As a consequence, we try hard to produce
- Foo 2:
- Foo 21
- Foo 22
instead of
- Foo 2:
- Foo 21
- Foo 22
which was the case in early versions of Markdown exporter. I guess we
should produce the latter only when the sub-list is followed by another
block element, e.g., "End of Foo 2 item".
WDYT?

I'm trying to generalize the rule. Your previous suggestion applied to
paragraphs. I wondered if it was the same with other block types, e.g.,
example blocks.
